How to wake up immediately when alarm clock rings? I usually turn it off and fall asleep again, but I have to wake up with no excuses in next days.
1) Delete that pic because this is a worksafe board.
2) Put the alarm clock far away from your bed so that you have to walk over to it.
3) Put your toothbrush and toothpaste next to it. As soon as you turn it off, start brushing your teeth. By the time you're in the bathroom spitting and rinsing, you'll have lost the irresistible draw to return to bed.

Very loud and put it far away from you.
sorry guys for a pic (randomly select). Thanks for tips! But it not always work for me. I walk to the alarm, turn it off and then back to the bed...
Put it some distance from your bed so you have to physically get up to turn it off. Beyond that, there's no simple trick that will stop you turning your alarm off and going back to your nice comfy bed if that's what you really want to do and you have no self-discipline.

Then stop doing that you retard
The secret: Sleep cycles. Use an app or a website to calculate when to go to sleep depending on when you want to get up. Try it, if it does not fit you can adjust it by + or - 20 minutes.
The other half is motivation. Tell yourself before falling asleep that you are just gonna stand up as soon as the alarm rings.
What I also do is I have a lamp with a timer in my room, goes on about 1h before my alarm. Super nice in winter when you have to get up in darkness.

how many hours do you sleep?
You can buy an alarm clock that requires you solve a short puzzle or other cognitive task before it shuts off.

Visualizing is a good idea like you suggested. I also wake up 5 min before my alarm always and I think I good part of it is that i visualize my morning as I'm going to sleep
Like "okay, I have to be there by 9, so I have to leave my 8:30, so I need breakfast by 8, to start getting ready at 7:30 and to be in the shower by 7, so I should get up by 6:30"
I also set my alarm to give me some extra time to hang out before I have to leave. I have a full day of work, school and study so it feels pretty hard to motivate myself if I know I get zero me time in a day. Getting up early and watching tv or whatever helps me feel more motivated to start my day.

Usually a bit more than 6 hours, I try to sleep 7.5 though.
I use LG's infamous a capella Good Morning song as my alarm tone. Ain't no sleeping through that: pure HATE will wake you up if nothing else does.
