if you get up pre-dawn and do some cardio & stretching to get the blood flowing and loosen up, you will find it much easier to sneak up on people and do property crimes. it's a great way to bleed off the cortisol spike of waking up. as far as your body chemistry is concerned, thinking you're being snuck up and pounced on is about the same as sneaking up and pouncing on someone. so if you can get your cortisol down early morning, before dawn even, and then be out sitting quietly in their blind spot with your eyes adjusted as the light comes up... you are ready.

getting up early to work for someone else blows. getting up early to jack rich people and take their shit rocks.
