Blogging Everyday

My wife tells me I haven’t been blogging everyday. Thanks hun for the accountability 🙂

It’s hard to establish a daily habit. Being sick recently doesn’t help.

So I’ve decided to wake up at 7:30am now, and after a game of VainGlory to insure I stay away, nothing after that is really consistent.

Good Morning

What a lovely morning.

I haven’t woken up this early (8am) for a while. (Def got off the wagon)

How I did it?

  1. Put myself first.
  2. “Sleep Alarm” clock.

Also “unwinded” after midnight… aka just read, but to be honest, I prolly slept too late.

Morning Leader

I’ve been waking up in the morning the past couple weeks. It started at 7:15am now it’s 6:30am.

I use this iOS app called “Sleep Cycle” that wakes me up between 6-6:30am depending on the movement it detects. (I set phone to “airplane” mode, and put it underneath my pillow *warning* fire hazard)

This way it’s suppose to wake you up, exactly when your 90 minute sleep cycle ends.

My family joined me today. So it’s working. I lead them into the darkness and we became bats. They woke up at 8am today. 🙂

Caffeine

So I’m reading book “Sleep Smarter” right now.

Great book.

It talks about optimizely getting your Caffeine intake. He says you should cycle your intake, as to not get addicted. Something like 2 days on, 3 days off. Very interesting.

I find myself very groggy in the morning, will take me 2 hours to get my barrings. Even though I’m paranoid about getting addicted to coffee… I am surprised by all the health benefits of coffee/caffeine… just have to intake it without getting addicted?

This might be a future regret. :p
