Polyphasic Sleep Days 5 and 6steemCreated with Sketch.

in #polyphasic6 years ago

These days are fairly similar to each other, in that they both have me tired nearly all the way through, and that within the two days I finally decided to start following my days with a list of objectives rather than blocking my time in hours and delegating a task every block.

This was I can get the most important stuff done, rather than started and put off to whenever the next delegated time for that thing is. I think this might be more efficient so I'll be sticking with it.

Since I started doing these updates, 3 or 4 days ago, I've been writing 1 and a half blog posts a day, or more accurately 3 posts every two days because on my website I've been going for a post a day, or at least 25 posts a month.

Anyway, onto the topic at hand. As with the former posts, here's my schedule:

Day 5

I woke up extremely tired this morning, would have fallen back asleep had I kept lying down. I am glad I had enough determination to get up, otherwise this post wouldn't exist ha. Of course, I would post about this day, but it would be another failure.

Throughout the day I was remaining tired. I kept lying down every now and then, not sleeping, just not sitting at my table. I also found myself walking around, then again that has been the case from day 1. I've been more energetic in that sense. Anxious? Maybe. I just sometimes feel like I can't stand (sit) sitting at my computer. This may effect me in a way I do not want.

I will need to get some discipline for that, because I need to be at my computer a lot. I doubt it will be any issue, though, as the need to get up is my excitement, mostly. Excitement for my plans, my future. I have too many, yet they all make me very excited lately, much more than usual. Is that an effect of polyphasic sleep or the censorship that has been happening lately? I don't know.

Day 6

I woke up drowsy again. This time I couldn't get up as easily as yesterday. I couldn't do as many pushups as before, though that could be due to me changing my form, but I nearly halved the amount before I basically dropped down. It was a rather comic moment. To supplement this, I did another go at it after waking up from the nap. I'm not a bodybuilder anyway, just an average person with little desire to become a bodybuilder. Simple exercising is plenty for me.

On the topic of the nap. It was quite bothersome. My alarm went off at 1pm rather than 5 minutes or 10 minutes before. I should fix that, as I don't like staggering to my room trying to get the full 20 minutes because I set the alarm incorrectly. It wasn't too bad, and I woke up from the nap without issue today. That is when I am typing this, right after finishing my site's blog post, which I completed after waking up again.

Feeling really good when I wake up from my nap tells me it'll be at least easier than last night to stay up until 11. I just hope that tomorrow won't be another drowsy day, it's been making me wonder why I am even doing this. Of course this is partially just for the fun of it, doing something different, and partially because I want more time to do other things that I enjoy.

I've been hearing a lot to get out of my comfort zone, and this definitely fits, but it makes me want to do more.
