everything wrote:that sounds like a LOT and quite great. 4:30 a.m. sounds way too early for me. are you just a morning person? what is your advice for waking up so early? go to sleep when sun sets?
I can do those things at night relatively well, but horribly in the morning. trying to avoid coffee or wait quite a while before having a cup so my body can just kind of "be aware"/adjust to the morning cycles more naturally. seems to be helping. energy is still not as good in the morning.
Hi, it sounds like a lot but it really isn't, its no more than an hour at most but the studying, effort and practise for along time (ongoing, learning and polishing) behind that hour is a lot in retrospect, an awful lot but worth it (it didn't need to be a lot but the concepts of ZZ, TJQ, IMA and associated biology, psychology etc are still quite new to The West and often shrouded in 'Chinese Whispers' in my humble and bumbling experience).
Its only 4:30 AM for me because it needs to be, there's no special esoteric reason, I have to go to work for 7:AM, there's stuff to do to set the day (and me) straight beforehand. I have to hit the deck and get going. I have to wake up.
My work is very tiring so there's no problem with being asleep for 10PM.
Maybe people have to go with their biorhythms and lifestyles which are as diverse as dietry needs so maybe 4:30 Am is useless to most folks?
I don't know, I'm a learner. I only know the bits that worked so far for my experience.
I'd actually prefer my 4:AM to be about 9:AM and for work to be a distant memory having won the lottery.
