SA makes list of earliest risers in the world
The top 10 countries with the earliest wake-up times have been revealed...
The early bird catches the worm, they say!
Wake-up time varies from person to person and is impacted by various external factors, but countries still have average wake-up times, which reflect the general wake-up times of their residents.
New data released by World Population Review revealed the average wake-up time of 50 different countries.

A lot of individual success and peak efficiency have been tied to early wake-up times, but the question is, is that true?
According to the new data, countries wake up at various times throughout the morning, with most people being up within the seven o'clock hour.
Countries like Kuwait and Spain, which would be considered the late risers, are all up within the eight o'clock hour, meaning most of the world is up and moving by 9am.
And if it's true that waking up early equals success, South Africans should be on top of their game as we came out as the country with the earliest wake-up time at 06:24.
Here are the top 10 countries with the earliest risers:
Columbia, Costa Rica, and Indonesia joined South Africa as the earliest risers, all waking before 07:00. Greece and Saudi Arabia are the countries that like to sleep in the most as they don't normally wake until nearly 8:30 am.

It's important to note that these times are averages, and it might not apply to all individuals and their personal schedules.
