2012 Goals Part 2: Beauty Sleep


My next goal for this year may seem simple enough but it really isn't, at least for me.  So I'm going to the gym at least 3 days a week and afterwards I'm so tired and exhausted I can barely function.  Seeing as I'm still at work afterwards this is not a good thing.  


I'm tired of being tired all the time.  It's time for me to grow up and take responsibility for myself.  Over the years I have read many articles about getting a good night's sleep and one repeating theme is not reading in bed, no watching t.v. in bed, no electronics in bed.  If you read or watch t.v. in bed then your body will think that's what it's supposed to do in bed instead of sleeping.  Plus reading and watching t.v. stimulate the mind and will prevent you from being fall asleep.


So now my new goal is to do no more reading or movie watching in my bed.  I have an area set up in my room for doing this and it's about time I started using it.
