Experimenting with the sleep again

I am catching up with posting online my articles.


This is the continuation of the previous article:

EXPERIMENTING WITH THE SLEEP AGAIN - PART 1
EXPERIMENTING WITH THE SLEEP AGAIN - PART 13 - DAY 1
EXPERIMENTING WITH THE SLEEP AGAIN - PART 26 - DAY 14
EXPERIMENTING WITH THE SLEEP AGAIN - PART 27 - DAY 15


Last night I slept 4 hours and then during the day I had a 17 min sleep. Apart from this I did 1 hour breathing in bed and I did not fall asleep while doing it.

Then there is also another point coming up and that it that I got sick. My nose is running and I think I have fever... No... wait a second... Actually I do not have fever as I checked it up with the thermometer.

Now I am looking at the point ( related to my sleep ) of why I do not get up out of bed when the alarm goes off but instead I snooze. Or I stay in bed trying to do breathe exercises knowing the most probably I would fall asleep as this happens probably 80% of time.

Why do I make this type of decisions ?

Because look at this... there are moments in my life when I have an early appointment with my clients or I have to go to the airport really early. So I get out of bed despite being tired and then I am glad that I did it because first of all the mornings are really nice and then my body "wakes up" when I start moving and all is good. OK... I may feel sleepy or tired 2 or 3 hours later but then I could have my 17 min break.

But this is not happening as I snooze and I don't advance with my experiment with sleep. And this is already Day 16.

And apart from this I am completely fed up with this experiment.

Now... now I am sick and I have good excuse to go to bed and let myself sleep as long I want. I will cancel my appointments tomorrow and I don't have to do anything if I don't want to.

But is it really justifiable to sleep long ?

Well... I don't think so... and thus I will stick to my plan of sleeping less. And I will get out of bed immediately after the alarm goes off. I wanted to write "I WILL TRY" to get out of bed but then I realised immediately that I am preparing myself for a failure because my staring point is of failure and I have no determination to succeed with it. So let's change my attitude and my starting point.

Is my starting point "best for all" ?

Well... yes it is.

So I will get out of bed when the alarm goes off.
