    Thomas Frank Thanks man! I'm honoured! You've basically subbed at a pretty perfect time because I've been taking a lot of your advice from videos and the book on board and I'm slowly reorganising my life to a point where I can maintain an upload schedule once my exams are over!

    Keep takeaways from this video: 1.) Have an established wake-up routine 2.) If you have a specific time to wake up in the morning, go to bed at a certain time at night 3.) Have a wind-down ritual 4.) Track your progress 5.) Stop using the internet late at night: Avoid electronics late at night 6.) Ask yourself: Is the goal I want a little later more important than what I want right now? One important aspect to note about waking up in the morning from the other video: * Have a reason to get out of bed. Try to find something that will excite you and give you energy so you will honestly wake up when that annoying alarm clock goes off! Thanks, Thomas Frank! I appreciate the advice!

    14 Minutes to fall asleep!!! It takes me at least an hour. My problem isn't getting to bed on time, its not being able to sleep til an hour and sometimes 2 after I've already gotten in bed. And if I catch myself almost falling asleep, I kind of jinx it and become conscious again making me restart the process.

    Sameena Arr: That's in normal people, i e without actual sleep disorders, and with "just" a self-discipline and addictive behaviour pattern. Inability to fall asleep until long, is insomnia Type1, the less bad variant, whereas Getting to sleep pretty much directly, but waking up after only a few hours , unable to fall asleep anew and get enough and good sleep, is insomnia type 2, which is even more serious. There are books for self-help, if one doesn't get professional help. self-help groups too. Good luck, peace...

    try lying perfectly still (most people find this easier to do on their backs) for 15-30 minutes. if you resist all twitches and scratches you can trick your brain into making you fall asleep.

    Maybe try drinking chamomile or other sleepy teas, writing down your thoughts on a notebook if you notice they keep you up or even if you don't: often your brain is worrying about something, and writing it down lets your brain be able to not worry about remembering that something. Some people find taking a shower, usually warm, before bed really helpful, and most recommend having a bedtime routine like Thomas mentioned to get their brain and body into sleep mode. Hot chocolate works for some people occasionally because they find it comforting, but keep in mind the caffeine and sugar content. Try not to do intense or medium exciting excersise within at least an hour before bed, as it wakens your body and brain up. Some find yoga, meditation, reading, a warm drink, and writing whatever your thoughts down before bed super helpful, and I recommend you try at least some of those methods. Also people who don't excersise during the day might find it harder to fall asleep, as they never used that energy to maintain or improve physical fitness and the brain can use it to fuel anxiety or stress. Keep in mind that while relaxing days are sometimes good, that energy has to go somewhere, even bad somewheres. Hope that helps!

    I have an alarm on my watch that goes off at 20.55. It prompts me to save what I'm doing and shut off my laptop by 9pm. Half an hour of tidying before a shower and it really helps. I've never been good at sleeping but this means I can usually get to sleep within half an hour instead of two hours. Plus it helps me to keep on top of my cleaning

    +Sam S yep! I had trouble with this for years, and eventually built this system to *force* myself out of bed: kzread.info/dash/bejne/do6EsNODk5Cwlco.html - some people think it's crazy/overkill, but it absolutely works for me. After several months, I eventually got to the point where I no longer needed it - however, that's only the case when I have a *reason* to get out of bed. In the Japanese island Okinawa, they have a concept called "ikigai", which for them means "a reason to get up in the morning" - something I think is essential. For me, it's getting to skating practice - I love doing it, and my coach expects me to be there. So I wake up early enough to get a good breakfast and get there. But ikigai can be smaller - I know people who simply look forward to waking up for a walk or a cup of coffee. Another tip - when the alarm goes off, don't even think - just swing your legs out of bed and stand up immediately. A quick rush of physical activity blunts the desire to go back to sleep. This morning was a perfect example - when my alarm went off, my brain was screaming at me that I was too tired, that I needed more sleep, that it was going to be a crap day... and yet today was probably my best day on the ice ever, and since practice ended I've already done my reading and written an entire video script. Don't give your brain time to trick itself ;)

    Say you've developed the habit. If you have one day for whatever reason you couldn't follow your regular routine/carry out your habit, does that break the habit? Obviously the answer will vary depending on the habit but how does it play out for sleeping?

    My unscientific opinion is that missing a day may throw you off for the next day, but I doubt it would ruin your habit completely. I would think that once you've developed that habit it would be harder for your brain to forget its training.

    I used to sleep very late and now I took the habit of going to bed at 9pm and I'm actually exhausted at 9.30 :') (But I feel amazing in the morning :D) Anyway I go to sleep around 11 pm once a week when I watch a movie or smtg and (if I don't fall asleep at 9.30 in the middle of the movie) I just go to bed normally at 11pm and that doesn't break the habit :) I hope I could answer your question, the 10 first days of this habit were kinda weird cause I was going to bed (with no screens ) at 9 pm and it would take me like 1 hour to fall asleep but after those ten days, going to bed early made my life just so much easier. I would suggest everyone to do the same ! :)

    +Agatha Reynolds thanks, just the kind of answer I was looking for actually. I had stress-induced insomnia around 2 years ago now. The way I "fixed" it was by waking up at the exact same time every morning no matter how many hours of sleep I got. This basically reset my body clock. I try waking up early but have never TRIED sleeping on a schedule. I'm definitely going to attempt this though.

    +TheWolfTyrant my opinion: you've broken the streak, but not the habit. To me, building habits should be all about focusing on the overall trend, not individual failures. If you're doing something 95% of the time now that you only used to do 20% of the time, I'd say you've built a good habit!

    Maybe try drinking chamomile or other sleepy teas, writing down your thoughts on a notebook if you notice they keep you up or even if you don't: often your brain is worrying about something, and writing it down lets your brain be able to not worry about remembering that something. Some people find taking a shower, usually warm, before bed really helpful, and most recommend having a bedtime routine like Thomas mentioned to get their brain and body into sleep mode. Hot chocolate works for some people occasionally because they find it comforting, but keep in mind the caffeine and sugar content. Try not to do intense or medium exciting excersise within at least an hour before bed, as it wakens your body and brain up. Some find yoga, meditation, reading, a warm drink, and writing whatever your thoughts down before bed super helpful, and I recommend you try at least some of those methods. Also people who don't excersise during the day might find it harder to fall asleep, as they never used that energy to maintain or improve physical fitness and the brain can use it to fuel anxiety or stress. Keep in mind that while relaxing days are sometimes good, that energy has to go somewhere, even bad somewheres. Hope that helps!

    Firstly, Thank you so much Thomas, you've made my life so much more productive and better overall. You are an inspiration to me and if it weren't for you I wouldn't have been able to better myself. Although I've made myself a better person and a better student, I was wondering if you could possibly do something explaining what you think students with low GPA/bad grades should do? I'm currently a Sophomore in High School and feel as though my mistakes from the past have doomed my future - including my acceptance into colleges that I want to get into. Thank you so much for you work and just for everything!
