Element Five - Getting some rest

Everyone has to sleep right?

Well like most people sleep was something that I wasn't really getting enough of. Instead of going to sleep at 11 o'clock and sleep eight hours until 7 o'clock I would stay up until 2 o'clock and survive the next day on 6 hours of sleep.

The problem with this is that when you are resting the body is repairing itself. Frankly I find that I feel better when I sleep enough.

During my recent tour Round Lake Erie tour I actually went to sleep before dark at around 8 o'clock at night. The next day I would get up around seven or eight o'clock and feel ready to go!

I am currently making a real effort to get to bed by eleven o'clock every night. When I do this it seems to result in an easier and less stressful day the next day!

So even though rest is often overlooked, to be successful I recommend adding it in.
