Here is a tip for all you college/uni students out there:
Sleep early. (If you can.)
A couple of days ago, I slept before 11pm. I woke up at 7:30 the next day feeling INCREDIBLE. Got up at the first ring of the alarm, no grogginess whatsoever, even had time to go online, check my email, check the markets, etc etc. Wide awake and alert throughout class and the rest of the day. I haven't felt so A-game since like elementary school.
So yeah, I encourage everyone to set an early bedtime! That's my "lifehack" as it were. Just a tip. Even if you have a bunch of stuff to do and you plan to stay up 'til 3 (as I often do), try sleeping first then waking up a couple hours early to finish off your work. You'll be completely refreshed, crystal clear thinking, and you won't regret it.
Let me know how it goes!
And of course, on to our submissions:

ReplyDeleteSame here, I can't sleep early, I get fed up
ReplyDeleteI can't get to sleep early either, though I would really love to.
ReplyDeleteI always love to sleep early! oh wait.. I mean sleep late... like waking up around midday :D
ReplyDeleteI cant remember the last time I went to bed early.
ReplyDeleteI got the best grades every throughout my last two years at university by moving my job to evenings on days I had class, and then spent all day Friday doing all the next week's work, spent Saturday / Sunday relaxing, rinse repeat.
ReplyDeleteThis way of time management means Mon-Thurs is hell, but you get tired and sleep around 11pm, finish all your work on Friday (and I was waking up at 8am and working on uni study etc throughout the day, finishing around 9pm or so, then you can enjoy your weekend guilt free!
As an athlete I kind of already do this by nature, & i need to get back in a better habit of this.
ReplyDeleteI really wish i could go to bed before 12 pm, but i just can't :(
ReplyDeleteI dont go to bed early. BUt I try to get atleast a 10 hour sleep a night. So I feel pretty amazing too.
ReplyDeleteI hate going to sleep early. Makes me feel like I'm wasting time...
ReplyDeleteI've been sleeping kinda less, but still reasonable at 1-8ish
ReplyDeletenice, yea i havent been able to do the before 11 pm bed time yet. Unless i have a fulltime job that requires it i doubt ill ever adapt my sleeping schedule just for school.
ReplyDeletesleep early thing is something i need to try, because i always wakeup tired
ReplyDeleteI can't sleep early, I'll just emd up turning and tossing on my bed, I always have to wait til I get exhausted.
ReplyDeleteIf I stay active all day and wake up early, Ill stay active and awake. Ive done this to stay up for 4 days. And what a 4 days that was!
ReplyDeleteCan't go to sleep early either.
ReplyDeleteI've always tried, but goddamn, sleeping earlier is so much harder than it should be
ReplyDeleteI'm a night person stay up to late.
ReplyDeletegood idea!
ReplyDeleteI always stay up late for no apparent reason.
ReplyDeleteAs I college student, I'm legally bound to not wake up on a single digit. (Before 10:00)
ReplyDeleteIt does not matter what time I go to bed or what time I get up, I am ALWAYS exhausted. It sucks :-(
ReplyDeletesleep is for the weak
ReplyDeletefollowed
I see 'morning' people are a minority around here...
ReplyDeleteSleeping early, its like sleeping in. GENIUS.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I feel better when I get up early (and go to bed early).
ReplyDeleteI was trying to fix my sleep schedule for weeks (go to sleep at 5am, wake up at 12pm), but then I realized: I don't have anything to do, because when I do, I go to sleep just fine earlier and wake up on time. I think it's just a matter of willpower.
ReplyDeleteSleeping is over-rated, besides I look really hot with the tired look :P
ReplyDeleteahah night owl here, i never sleep any more =p
ReplyDeleteI've tried to do this, dammit, and the same thing always happens. I'll wake up after about 2 hours. My body simply doesn't believe in sleeping before 4 am anymore.
ReplyDeleteHOLY SHIT I DIDN'T KNOW THAT
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip :P
Sleep? I'll sleep whenever I want to.
ReplyDeletedef. good advice. :)
ReplyDeleteearly bed time cuts into my bar time though lol
ReplyDeleteI would sleep early, but all my courses are later at night, so I end up staying up until 3 anyway :/
ReplyDeleteYou talk the truth, sometimes, after a 5-hour-sleep-a-night week, you just feel like SHIT!
ReplyDeletegood tip i always stay up toooo long
ReplyDeleteand stop drinking coffee! or energy drinks =P
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with you on this!! I feel wonderful when I can actually get myself to sleep at a decent time. I unfortunately have trouble getting myself to do that often.
ReplyDeletei would love to sleep early, but i have a slight computer addiction.
ReplyDeletei agree that this indeed works but sometimes i just lose track of time playing minecraft and simcity.
