Question, is the major benefit that you had the discipline to read this book for a year? You didn't go into what you're doing differently now that you weren't a year ago.
- ryanwaggoner 16y agoI'll cover that in another post, but yes, I feel much, much more disciplined and in control now. Particularly around daily habits. I have about a dozen habits that I do Mon-Fri and I haven't missed a single one in more than a year. For the last three months, I've been getting up at 345am seven days a week and I haven't missed a single day. It's not all this book and it's hard to describe, but there's a difference.
- eru 16y agoYou mean you have been getting up at quarter to four? That's impressive. When do you go to bed? I find that I need so much sleep, that getting up at four would require me to go to bed at 18.00 or so.
- space-monkey 16y agoA month ago I started getting up an hour earlier and exercising before work. Now that I'm getting exercise I'm sleeping better and thus need less sleep. YMMV
- eru 16y agoInteresting. I have started Rippetoe's strength training program in April 2010, and it works nicely, but it did not affect my sleep. (Although on days when I don't exercise I sometimes have a harder time falling asleep. Especially when I have just picked up caffeine on that day again.)
- Evgeny 16y agoI've been getting up at 345am seven days a week and I haven't missed a single day. For me it sounds like a solid reason not to touch this book, ever.
