Try to enjoy getting up early, make yourself some nice breakfasts, your walk or journey into work try to make it interesting.

Indeed, waking up early is going to be the hard part. It's not so much waking up, but these days it takes 4-5 hours for my mind to wake up.

Ukit, we are in the same boat. I am moving 4 hours away to work fulltime 9-5 after being freelance for 3 years.
Woo! Can't wait!

In relation to waking up early, best way to adjust yourself IMHO, is to start going to bed an hour or two earlier than you really want to, that will make a big difference, as I found when I recently did the same.

Make sure to wear a short sleeved shirt so you can show off your needle tracks.

The first month was a real adjustment in terms of waking up early
and getting out the door.And it was really hard to be civil dealing with the same idiots day after day after day. Could hardly wait to leave at 6pm.
The great ideas became watered down then shot down.
My team became the only reason i was still there, as we laughed the days away.So I'm freelance again, and happy –this was my experience hope yours is better!
