For some people life will take a fat steaming shit on your schedule, I wish it was that simple.

Wake up eat. Gym. Eat. Go to work. Coffee. You'll get through the day but then crash around bedtime.

Swore gym before work would never work for me (tried it in uni also). But I was going to quit anyway and when I did it realised it worked for me.

You also need to change your drinking pattern to day drinking.

... what's a drinking pattern??? :|

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

Don't start drinking at 8pm start drinking at 8am. That way you can be in bed by 8pm and your sleep pattern is all good.

When you spilled enough to see a self portrait you've had enough.

Some of it is genetic but mostly it's conditioning, like in the Military.

EDIT: To clarify, veterans often (but not always) wake up before dawn consistently for decades after their service. I don't really recommend it as an option, but it's proof of concept.

Kids, kid's sports and work. Or conditioning, like you said

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah, I got the conditioning during college. Work 32 hours a week while taking 15 credits, you won't have time for sleep. Work 7:30am-4pm MWF, go right to campus for some homework and dinner before class 6pm-9pm. Then go home and do homework/sleep. Tu/Tr have class from 10am-2pm and work 3pm-7pm and then work on homework, housework, gym. You won't have the energy to stay up late.

Lobotomy for sure.

Get a job that requires it

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago (3 children)

My wife got a job where it is required and she still struggles to sleep early enough.

Hence all the jokes about needing coffee to function... oh, those aren't jokes? People do sometimes literally need stimulants to function?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah, its still often a struggle for me to, but I just woke up at 8am today naturally on a weekend, so its slowly changing me over

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

I know issue I have is going to bed early. If I can wake up early and sleep early, it fixes the cycle. Naps mess up everything
