Consistent healthy sleep patterns (please don't blog at 4am like the author), seeing a therapist, try and get outside and see some nature (that can be just pigeons in a park if you're in a city), for 30-60 minutes a day. It all makes a huge, huge difference in your ability to learn, to work, and to love back those people in your life who love you.

- kxrm 3y ago> please don't blog at 4am like the author It's less about when the author blogged and more about how much deprivation is built up. I regularly stay up til 4am but my day doesn't start until 11am, so I get my regular 7 hours of sleep. I split my work day in order to pull this off, working the over night hours and daytime is for meetings. This pattern works best for me as I produce better and think clearer late at night.
- __turbobrew__ 3y agoYeah sometimes I can’t/don’t go to bed until 3am but I still make sure I get a full nights sleep. Sometimes I just take the day off work and sleep in, which is obviously a luxury, but many people don’t take days off for personal needs even though they have that luxury available to them.
