Nightbird vs Early risers - What sort of person are you?

Sleep at around 10-10:30 pm without an alarm and wakeup sometime around 6-6:30 am

Reasons -

Koro needs the beauty sleep

Also less importantly, well rested days seem more productive than the ones I force with alarms.

Pay heed to your circadian rhythm and do what works best, consistently.

it goes like these 2 ways since I joined the job:-

1. 10:00-10:30 sleep & wake up at 5:00/5:30/6:00

2. 12:00 sleep & wake up 5:30/6:00/6:30

right now :D

sleep anytime 11:00/11:30/12:00/12:30/1:00/1:30/2:00

wake up max up to 5:30 (the problem is I can't sleep, if I try hard to sleep more, it results in whole day headache.)

My answer would be complicated and may create doubts,nevertheless it is wat i have done n doing.

I have to divide the timeline into 4 phases for labeling my personification. 

1. Pre corona(Dec to March 13th):When everything is normal and when sfg was in offline,i used to follow one schedule sleep early wake up early.
2. Post Corona till june last week:I became nightbird(not that i was studing all night,but used most time to study)
3. Interim period July to Aug:No sleep cycle as such,one day i was a night walker,other day i was a early riser.
4. Atpresnt,from aug:Sleeping early n starting day early.Ensuring 9am to 12pm for solving tests or any pyq mcq.my sleep cycle is 11 30 to 6. Reason for this cycle is to become exam ready n wanted to make D day as same like its previous day.

Ps:Now a days,im focusing more on Area based approach rather than time based. ( this days we can clock upto 10 to 12hrs).

At present scenario,I declare myself as 

"Sun Riser".

.

early riser

consistent sleeping pattern 10:30-6

reason: circadian rhythm has always been like that 

Early riser. I try to sleep between 11pm to 1 am. Then 7 hours of sleep. 

Reason:

1.  At my home, everyone is awake by hardly 5 am. They give me an allowance of max 2 hours, ie upto 7am. By then everyone has tea, so they wake me up.

2. My efficiency at night is very low. So, I try to sleep early. 

If I struggle in sleeping, then I use guided meditation for sleep (from Fitbit app).

Nightbird🦉

• My sleep cycle is 6:30 am to 12:30 pm.
• REASON- throughout my education phase, nights were my productive study time. (i studied at residential school, so nightbird from those days.)
• So, for UPSC preparation I again picked the same study time.
• But 1 month before prelims I'm gonna change my sleep cycle to 12 am to 5 am, so that I could practice some mocks as per the timings of  D-day. ( 4 September onwards)

I sleep like 3 AM to 8 AM.  Rest all time into studies with 15 minutes of photography , 15 minutes of evening walk and an hour of social media / debate !! 

I get around 16 hours for study , 12 hours daily is must . Rest 4 hours vary completely.  In those 4 hours , I may take power Naps , read novels , play guitar , or just surf through random financial news and happenings around world coz I love Economics ..

🥺 my sleep cycle is blunder. My only focus has always been on meeting my deadlines so I sleep in chunks and I wake up out of fear that I might lose something. This has been with me post schooling. So yes I am not good example. 

But you guys are so well lined up and I envy you all  

#1 Neither.

#2 Sleep at around midnight, wake up at around 7 am, no alarms needed. I need at least 7 hours of sleep or I have headaches throughout the day. 

#3 Always followed the same schedule throughout school and college so the body clock is set that way. 

Night owl always. 

Studying at night gives a sense of urgency & a feeling that one is actually doing something substantial in life. 

But I don't wake up late. I believe in sleeping happily during the timing of CSAT paper. 

And this is a bad habit of sleeping during the day. 2nd half of Mains Papers has always been a headache for me. Nevertheless, for me that 1-2 hour sleep in the day time is pure bliss. 

#1. Neither of the two. Middle path.

#2. Sleep at 1.30 and wake up in between 8 to 9 am.

#3. Reason: Zyada raat ki apni dikkatein hain, subah jaldi ki apni. So middle path. 😁

I sleep 7-8 hrs, usually between 11-12 pm and 7-8 am. Never studied at odd hours before, few exceptions though but not in a sustainable manner. Two things I've come to know about myself. One, I study best in the morning hours. Two, I struggle at studying if I start again after a long break.

So, I must start early and sit for long hours with short breaks in between. Progressive loading is the way I guess. Going to change my sleep schedule gradually and be anearly riser.

Today is an exception :-p

1.Late early riser

2.sleep around 12.30;wakeup around 8.30

3.I do not keep alarm,I left it to my brain whenever it wants to wakeup.so naturally getsup after 8 hrs of sleep.8hrs of sleep found to be useful in retaining the things better.

However earlier i also tried studying at night, initially went well but later suffered with acidity.

Rising up early is good for health,can able to have Breakfast,lunch and Dinner on perfect time.
