"Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man (or woman) healthy, wealthy, and wise get a top LSAT score."
What I didn't realize is:
***They're not doing their most difficult work for that day while still sleep-drunk and in PJs.***
Instead, they take the time to have coffee, read the paper, exercise, meditate, etc., THEN go to their office and start their workday.
When I first tried waking up early to cram more LSAT hours into my day...I found I wasn't getting much out of those hours.
Things just wouldn't click. My brain wouldn't work as quickly as I needed it to.
Looking back, this actually shouldn't be that surprising.
Turns out, being "sleep-drunk" is a real thing.
Researchers found:
"For a short period, at least, the effects of sleep inertia may be as bad as or worse than being legally drunk..."
If you can't do LSAT questions when you're sober, how can you do them while you're drunk?
So after learning this, I changed things up.
Now, for the first two hours after waking up, I let myself do pretty much whatever I want (work out, read news, check email).
Since making this change to observe "Morning ME Time," I've inadvertently gotten:
* More relaxed.
* A ton of extra reading and exercise done.
* Increased length of concentration when I DO work.
To find out how to fit LSAT studying into your day (without being sleep drunk, or just plain drunk)...
