I also read that our bright monitors are fooling us for daylight but the key thing is eating. Usually I would eat late in the day and just get going on coffee.

I also read that our bright monitors are fooling us for daylight but the key thing is eating. Usually I would eat late in the day and just get going on coffee. But I read and tried it (it works somewhat) that if you dont' eat at night, then wake up early just one day and eat a nice meal. Your body instantly adjusts. You repeat this for a while and soon enough you are an 7-8am'er.
- mleonhard 18y agoMaking any lasting change requires three things: Motivation, Mechanism, and Monitoring. I've implemented these three things to fix my sleep schedule: Motivation comes from my own desire and encouragement from those around me. The Mechanism is to shift my eating schedule earlier by eating a snack in my bed right when the alarm goes off and eating dinner earlier. Monitoring is the log book of times that I eat, wake up, and go to sleep. Applying this technique for 2 weeks has yielded a 2-hour forward shift in my sleep schedule! :) The article mentions another mechanism: going outside right after waking up. I'm going to think about adding this mechanism to my sleep-schedule-shift personal development project.
