While i am sleeping obviously

That would be the other 20 hours a day that I am awake.

Always have pills and make sure there are no zombies around your house

The rest of the time when I'm supposed to be productive.

I've been spending the past hour before bed just going hard on my writing. I like writing fiction for fun, but I also like spending time writing backstory/world building that I'll never use. So I do that part right before I fall asleep.

Last night, I fell asleep to writing how my alien race uses food utensils. It's pretty boring in general for me, but it helps my brain get to a happy spot for dreams.

Typically while I'm on the pooper.

I've only got so much time in the day, so some things have to double up.

Ah ! The secret is to use every possible way to avoid free thinking during the day, and do it until you fall asleep from exhaustion!

All panicking and overthinking is reserved for the few hours before deadlines.

Also in dreams.

That's my secret, captain.

I'm always panicking and overthinking.

You do it all day so you're so exhausted you fall right asleep!
