Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan. Fourthly; early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast. Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit(养成习惯) of early rising. They have to make an effort(努力) to do so.
