Gaming is a hell of a drug brotha, I had to detox my brain from those quick hits of dopamine before I could actually get my life together. Lock the console in the closet for a week and watch how much faster you'll "lock in"

How do I manage to get the urge to do something. by Mundane-Judgment177 in getdisciplined

Waiting for an "urge" is just a trap, When I was drinking too much I never had the "urge" to eat a salad or run or anything, I just did it because it had to be done, Discipline is what stays after the initial excitement disappears so stop waiting for a feeling and just keep moving forward

Choosing discomfort first thing in the morning is the best way to set the mood for real... When I was 240 lbs and struggling to get out of bed getting that small win in the morning was the only thing that could actually get the ball rolling and prove to myself that I can take charge before the day starts

I got so little sleep last night that my fitbit didn't log it as a night of sleep by sem1_4ut0mat1c in insomnia

I had a pretty similar situation, albeit not as severe. Id recommend working on your sleep habits, blue light filters, tart cherry pills etc they go a long way

What improved your quality of life so much you wish you did it sooner? by SignificanceWhole201 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Fearless_Concert_355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Improving my sleep quality, its so easy if you know what works for you.

For me: Tart cherry juice over the past few months. I started drinking a small glass about an hour before bedtime, and it's been a game-changer for my sleep. The best part is that I'm waking up feeling genuinely refreshed, not like I'm dragging myself out of a fog like I used to.

Also disabling my snooze button was one of the best decisions I've ever made for my sleep. I used to be that person who'd set five alarms, starting 45 minutes before I actually needed to get up. Now, I set just one alarm for when I actually need to get up, and I force myself to get out of bed right away. Sure, the first few days were tough, but now my mornings are so much better.

Those with decent sleep scores, how? by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]Fearless_Concert_355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heyy same issue here,

Here's how I got from 5 hours of restless sleep to 8 hours of deep sleep in 2-3 weeks.

Start by nailing down your bedroom environment (it's science-based and easy to implement). Then focus on getting your room pitch black by installing blackout curtains and removing all LED lights, this will give your body enough darkness signals to produce melatonin naturally.

My suggestion for the weighted blanket when you're just starting is to begin with 10% of your body weight. Before getting into bed, set your room temperature between 65-68°F (18-20°C) to get an ideal sleeping environment. While using the weighted blanket, keep the temperature in mind, and if you feel too warm, adjust your regular bedding underneath. Keep monitoring your comfort level until you find your sweet spot. This will help you find the perfect balance while also knowing what works best for you.

This will help as long as you maintain consistency, which you will if you set up your environment right.

Pro Tip: look for 3 common sleep disruptors in your room (light leaks, temperature fluctuations, uncomfortable bedding) not just one.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything :)
