Benefits of Waking Up Early

I admit it. I was on a 100 day program to become a morning person and only lasted 83 days. Just 17 days to perserve... what was wrong with me?


Alas, it was a case of the sun rising later methinks, so I have decided to give being a morning person another go. This time I am going to allow myself to wake up at least 30 minutes before sunrise during the winter, which means waking up at 7AM every day. During summer and autumn I usually woke up at 5AM!

Anyway, every day I am going to put some new inspiration on this blog to keep me going to achieve the 100 days. And I will continue rewarding myself every week. This time, however, I might try the "marshmallow-resistor" style reward, which would double every week. Since 100 days is a tad over 14 weeks, that is a lot of doubling, so I will have to check out the economics. Maybe if I start with 100 Won for Week 1, then 200 Won for Week 2, etc.

It would then go:

Week 3 - 400 Won
Week 4 - 800 Won
Week 5 - 1600 Won
Week 6 - 3200 Won
Week 7 - 6400 Won
Week 8 - 12800 Won
Week 9 - 25600 Won
Week 10 - 51200 Won
Week 11 - 102400 Won
Week 12 - 204800 Won
Week 13 - 409600 Won
Week 14 - 819200 Won
Week 15 - 1638400 Won = about $1630

What to do with the money? Hmm. Worth thinking about.

Anyway the interesting article for today is attached, and it is about becoming friends with your alarm clock, if that is possible! So click on the link below:
