How to reschedule your Sleep.

When you realize that Sleep is a limiting factor to your preparation, that’s when it means you’re getting somewhere.

This is a brief article on Sleep.

How many hours of sleep do we need?

I don’t know. I’d say somewhere between 6–8 hours should be a safe bet.
Some do on less, some do on more.

But anything that makes you feel fatigued on waking is definitely a sign you need better sleep.

But this isn’t about that.

Part A:

So, you’re waking up late at 10AM and wish to wake up at 6AM.

Here’s how I’ve gone about it:

• Set you clock to 15 mins earlier than the time you usually wake up.
  This is your new wake schedule for ONE whole Week.
• Keep pulling back by 15 mins each week till you’ve hit your waking-Up Goal
• Drop the blanket or anything cozy. Anything that’ll encourage you to stay longer in bed should be dumped instantly.

Change your timezone:
If you wake up at 10AM IST (+5:30GMT), Shift your timezone to one that has 6AM on their clocks (+1:30GMT).
This sounds funny, but when you start following the new timezone, your body gets confused and you can carry on your day as if your woke up early.

Productivity rises when working at 6AM- even if it’s on pretend time.

Change your timezone again in the evenings for an added boost.

Remember to also adjust your bedtime accordingly.

PART B:

Once you’re on your new sleep and wake schedule, make sure you stay disciplined and maintain it- ESPECIALLY during that last days of your exam.

DO NOT RISK answering your exam without proper sleep- a years worth of effort depends on a nights worth of sleep!
