In retirement, my tendency has been to not set an alarm. My sleep pattern seems to be go to bed around midnight and wake up at 8.
For some time I’ve known this causes me to miss great parts of the day.
Is it ok or can it work to try to alter my nature?
Four days in a row, I’ve been up by 7 a.m., all but the first waking to an alarm I set.
Each day I’ve walked outside. The benefits of doing this before the heat of an Oklahoma summer morning are many.
I’m pretty sure there also will be benefits even if I’m not planning to exercise outdoors.
I want to keep this up. I’m working on getting to bed earlier — and working in a catnap if needed.
One day at a time. Let’s see where this leads.
