I am still recovering from a workaholic binge early this week (which was very instructive), but I am intending to start a modified Everyman schedule from Monday 3/15. My schedule to look like:
- 2-6am: Work: mostly pure research and study (the thing that is the most difficult for me to fit in), plus a limited amount of personal email and writing (the thing that is most fun for me)
- 6-8am: Exercise and breakfast
- 8-9am: Sleep, or meditate/relaxation exercises
- 9am-1pm: Work: billable hours and general admin
- 1pm: Eat
- 1:30-3:30pm (or whatever): sleep until I am rested
- 4pm onwards – rest of my day as per my pleasure – but hopefully to include some music practice and reading for pleasure
- 9pm – in bed, winding down (spiritual reading and/or listening to music)
- 10pm-2am: sleep
This adds up to 7-8 hours of sleep or relaxation. I am currently sleeping a lot more than this, so this would be a major breakthrough, in addition to the 8 hours of focused work and intellectual effort.
I want to add, that it’s kind of new to me to publish a daily intimate journal for anyone on the web to see — hopefully not too many of my friends and business associates ;-). I write a lot on my personal blog, and very revealing stuff, but only on about a monthly or bimonthly frequency. This is different, more “raw” and in-the-moment, we’ll see if it works…
