That's why i'm starting this blog. It's to motivate me through my battle against the severe insomnia that i've had for years and my disorganizing habits. Plain and simple, i'm a mess. I've let things drag on without bothering to fix them. Maybe thinking that they would somehow magically fix themselves. Of course they didn't. They got worse.<br /><br />I'm a very determined and head strong person. I've always been that way. I'm also a perfectionist which lead to procrastination. Notice how both those words start with P. I need to find a new letter of the alphabet to relate to. I know i'm not making any sense. In fact, i'm shaking my head at myself as i type this. Oh and please don't mind those uncapitalized "i's". That's just me. <br /><br />Today is my 3rd day trying to force myself to get better sleep. I'm starting to get drowsy because i took some Melatonin. Now, that's no guarantee that i will fall asleep. It just sort of pushes me in the right direction. That's it. I'm a hard one to make sleep. It would take a lot, trust me. I figure that's from years of having this problem. And the fact that i'm a light sleeper sure doesn't help. It could also be the fact that i think too much. Maybe a combination of all? I guess it doesn't matter. Regardless, i have a hard time falling asleep even with the help of a sleeping pill. <br /><br />So i'm trying to get myself to start sleeping 8 hours again. Eight hours of uninterrupted sleep would be nice but for now, eight hours of anything will do. So far it's working. A miracle? I think so. In the meantime, i will be working on my organizing skills. I read that it's hard to sleep when your place is messy and disorganized. I see papers everywhere. Ok, first step.............baby steps..............<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6917636943769724469-7780458766386786639?l=positiveambiance.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Nature's Prismhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08270292338304843072noreply@blogger.com0
