So trying to change my habbits I decided on going to sleep early and waking up early to work as oppose to spending whole night working and sleeping very little. Specially now when working at the house by 22:00 my body is so exhausted it can only think of sleeping. After few days of trying, I managed to wake up at 5 am just before the alarm went off. This made me get up form bed as I felt I am ready. Hopefully I can train my body to get up at 4 am. It would be perfect balance to get shit done while having good sleep

@muppeth
Good attempt. Our sleep cycles usually get delayed but since we don't have flexible work hours we sleep till 1 pm or 2 pm at times :) So even we sleep as late as 4 am we still get good sleep!

Excellent @muppeth .. After having read "Why we sleep" by Matthew Walker I also started to change my sleeping habits the past year and I feel I've gained so much energy from it that I am pretty glad I did that.

That’s awesome @muppeth!
I’ve done that some years ago and it changed the way I dealt with my day. Felt better, done more... yet saw less friends, that’s the downside. Regardless, this post is teasing in me the thought of giving it another go!

Good luck in keeping that up!

hey man, yeah it's been a while! sadly.
I'm well, thank you, what about you ?
The early wakeup stuff is really powerful, and it's a life changing habit.
Do you read French ? There is a little ebook called "Reveil Ultra Matinal" (Ultra Early Wake-Up) that I read before that laid out in nice terms the whys and the hows.

I overdid it the last night and tried to wake up at 4:00 which resulted in me switching the alarm clock and going back to sleep. I will stick to 5am for a while.

the book I mentioned talks about circadian rythmn. Basically you need to go to bed when your body tells you to, and wake up at the right time.
Picking up a time at random won't work, you will most likely force yourself out of bed during your deep sleep. Doing that, regardless of how many hours you slept that night, will leave you shitfaced for the day for sure.
an cycle is about 90 minutes, and it rythms your whole day, it's how your body knows when to turn on digestion, when to turn it off at night, when to make you feel tired etc... if you can pinpoint one of these, by extrapolation, you can find out when you should wake up.
Example : we all have a moment in the early afternoon where we feel a little off, that's 1 point. There is a time at time at night where you feel yawning, that another.

Another good way to find out is doing a trial run. Go to bed friday night as soon as you feel tired. Don't put any alarm. And check your clock every time you wake up naturally in the middle of the night. you'll probably wake up around 3.30 and again at 5.00, but it could also be 3 and 4.30 ... identify those and you'll know when to wake up. Preferably with an intelligent sleep app that can also identify your rythms and wake you up when you are the closest to being awake.
serious stuff
cheers.

Nice day to work

@searoso Ton of isolation. A layer of harden wood fiber isolation from the outside (60 mm), then wood fiber isolation (about 180mm) in beteen the beams and then another thermo harden wood fiber isolation on top of the OSB plates (another 60mm), then a layer of either dry wall or clay finish.
The temperatures in winter are not so bad but they do occasionally go under 0 degree C.
