The new me

Rolled around on bed until midnight, really struggle to sleep. And was giving myself an excuse to sleep until 6 instead of 5, but still, couldn't sleep, so I got up anyway at 5:20. Spent the time on fixing some work related stuff instead of learning, but that's fine, I already know what I want to study, also didn't workout as I was suppose to at 6. That I have to resume tomorrow. Need to go to bed earlier.

Ha, havn't posted in 3 days and even delayed with this one. Thought I had given up? No way. I did skip the weekend due to activities that requires me to be more awake than otherwise so I decided to sleep till 9:30 instead of the orignally planned 7:00. Also skipped the training which I should have still managed. That won't happen. Today I woke up fresh, due to the fact that I went to bed at 10pm sharp, took some time to fall asleep but I got through the night fine and had no trouble getting up at 5:00. Once again I got some stuff to fix so I didn't spend the time learning, but did researched on a few courses that I would like to take, these MIT online courses are damn expensive, think I will stick to the coursera courses for the time being... Went on a walk / run and burned off 220 calories which made my apple for breakfast felt less guilty...

OK, so on day 4 I didn't wake up during the night. Yesterday had been tough, needed naps to get through the day, but I did manage to get on bed by 10pm and slept through the night without waking up. That's improvement. Had also little challenge waking up this morning. Still, 1 hour seems a bit short to learn something, need to find a way to improve the schedule. Thinking about skipping training today and use the time for learning / doing stuff instead. Think I will be ready for a proper structural online course next week.

Went to bed closer to midnight, due to a last minute golf simulator session. That's a total violation of "learn to say no" which was my new year resolution. Anyhow, I managed to get up at 5 still, and instead of learning something new, I spent the time on getting the shareholder agreement ready for this hobby business with friends. Instead I have booked a session in the afternoon to learn about RAG. This finding something to learn really needs to be more structured. Let's see if MIT have something good. Weekend coming up soon, will adjust the schedule to 7am during weekend, while keeping the 5am wake up time. At least while I am in Norway. Will be operating at a different time while we are on vacation abroad. I guess this is the biggest difference between me and the person that I watched on the youtube video, he was alone, and stuck, when I have a family and other factors to consider, it makes a change like this even tougher, but I will do it!

Went to bed at 10:30, that means 6.5 hours of sleep. Had to take a quick 30min nap yesterday afternoon to make the day go around... Also woke up once in the middle of the night... However, it wasn't really that big of a challenge to get up this morning. Don't think I am ready for some heavy duty online course just yet, but soon... Going to continue to watch videos on how to make better use of LLMs.

So I had to drag myself out of bed today, already going to bed late the night before (10:30), I woke up twice in the middle of the night, and plus some rolling around in bed, I was already half awake by the time the alarm clock goes off. The good thing is that I didn't have to fight the demon that says: "Just 5 more minutes". Will start with something that doesn't put me right back to sleep, that is to watch a few videos on how to train your own LLM. Then I will do some fast walking for 30 minutes in the second hour.
