In the past week, I've found that I was falling asleep during class and generally slogging through the stress-filled days. I realized that I had been sleeping an average of 5.5 hours a night and purchasing all of my meals in the cafeteria instead of preparing something more nutritious at home. I also didn't make it to the gym (other than the class that occurred in it).
In light of last Tuesday's discussion on conditioning, I will try to give microgoaling a try. The idea is to break up a task into small manageable bits on a daily basis rather than using the "go big or go home" mentality. That is psychologically supposed to encourage one to actually be productive rather than intimidate one into inaction.
So tonight's microgoal is going to be to get 7 hours of sleep.
Interesting - will read on to hear how this experiment went...
