YMMV indeed. If I do that, forget it. The most awake I'll be when getting up is when that first alarm goes off; any subsequent "snooze" just gets repeated until "too late" hits. I may be staggering out of bed feeling ill and half-zonked, but I'm UP.
Best way I find to fight the "snooze button" effect is to have a reason to get up. Make sure there is no way to rationalize another 10 minutes. I have to be out by X:Y0AM, and must do P D & Q before, and any delay will screw that up - so I have to get up when the alarm goes off, no matter how much I hate the fact DST means it's just as dark out as when I went to bed.
Once up, the next step is JUICE. A shot of sugar, in a healthy format, to stimulate blood sugar levels and get energy going. That's enough to get the rest of the process going.
Toddlers help. Get 'em to bed so they'll get up when you want to get up. Nothing is more irresistible than 2.5' of "Da Da! Milk!"
Final tip: don't care. Doesn't matter whether you want to get up or not, just friggin' do it. Between this and other issues, I've largely eradicated the "I do/dont' want to" mindset: I don't care, it doesn't matter what I want, just do it because it has to be done.
