I’ve only recently discovered the importance of developing regular sleeping habits for being always fresh. I’ve always known that getting sleep the night before a busy day is important, but I’ve never known just how much until now. Lately I’ve been having trouble remembering things at work and staying focused on what I’m doing. I find sometimes that I’m full of energy for a few hours, and then a complete deadbeat after.

What aggravates this situation even more is when the lack of sleeping hours pile up from one day to the next. Let’s say I lose 2 hours of sleep every day for a week. At the end of the week, I will be off by 14 hours! If that continues into next week, it will be 28 hours! Think about what effect this has on your mind if this becomes a life-long habit. You will always be tired and you will always be falling on that as an excuse not to achieve anything or work as slow as you do. Yes, you!

I’ve found that a good motto for personal change and being always fresh is

“if you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll just keep getting what you’ve already got”.
