The sleep issue
Ever since I remember, unless I am really really tired, I have never wanted to go to sleep. Right now I am quite tired and hope to wake up tomorrow early-ish to do stuff, but I keep on distracting myself with things so I won't have to go to sleep.
On the other side of the coin I hate waking up and getting out of bed. It takes me 1-2 hours if I don't have anywhere to be. I really have to force myself to get up and not go back to sleep or doze some more. I guess you could say I am late to bed, late to rise.
Maybe I should try and start to change my habits, because I hate when it gets dark and I haven't done anything. Makes me feel like I've wasted a day, although logically I know I will still be awake and able to do things for about 8 more hours. I recently read an article on 30 day trials in habit-changing, where you tell yourself you will change something for 30 days, and see how that goes. The thinking is that it takes about 30 days to form a habit, but also that you have a discernible goal, and you can tell yourself that it only lasts that long, and after the 30 day trial period, if you don't think the benefits outweight the negatives, you can go back.
So today is the 9th of February. From the next 30 days (until 2nd March) I will attempt to go to bed at 12 at the latest and wake up at 9 at the latest (this really is early for me).
Wish me luck. :)
