Going back to the Bible’s use of oversleeping as an analogy for sloth and folly, think of how the people who have trained themselves to get up in the morning experience their alarm clock blaring in their ears. Do they groan and hit the snooze button? No. They get up. If they’re especially tired they might groan, but they usually don’t even consider the option of sleeping longer. If they think anything about it they resolve to get to bed earlier or get a nap when possible. They don’t struggle as those untrained in awaking on a schedule struggle.
