I used to have this problem, which in my case I attributed to my smoking
habit;  when I quit that I found that I arose more easily in the mornings.
However, while I smoked, I found that I could trick my body into thinking it
was summer time (daylight savings time and early sunrise) by turning on a lamp
(with an electric timer) about an hour before my scheduled time to get up.
You might give this a try.
