Social Media


Another thing I've noticed while tracking my time is how much of my time is spent looking at Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest. I've known social media eats up my time, but when you count all of the minutes here and there, they definitely add up! Going back to my post about using seconds ... I could get a lot more done if I used those occasional social media seconds and minutes for other more meaningful things.

Morning Rhythms

My morning rhythm starts pretty slow and continues to speed up until I enter the room of my first class. This happens because I tend to oversleep but still be pretty groggy when I wake up since I'm such a deep sleeper. Other mornings, when I oversleep a lot, the rhythm is fast and furious during my whole (condensed) routine. I don't think my morning routine will ever feel peaceful and slow. It's just the nature of my routine and schedule.

Day 1 of Compliment Time

Day 1 of my designed compliment time was a success! It was brief - I probably only took one minute to do it. But it felt good to reflect on good things I had done and good qualities I have. I'm looking forward to continuing this daily reflection. I'd like to make it a habit because it has the potential to really change me for the better.

Time Dominoes

Like I said in my previous post, tracking my sleep has awakened me to the reality of how little sleep I get. I've noticed a domino effect when this happens. While I may be mentally satisfied with 5-6 hours of sleep a night, my body definitely is not. So my time in the day and week ahead is then affected. My body craves sleep, so I frequently oversleep and lose time I need to prepare for my day in the morning. I fall asleep in class and lose valuable learning time. I'm sluggish in other classes and lose work time. The time I sleep directly correlates with my success in other endeavors.
