365 Things I Believe: Sleep

Sure, traditionally experts have said that everyone needs a good eight hours worth of sleep. Personally, I need a good six just to be able to function. I don’t always get that.

I rarely get that.

Don’t get me wrong. Most nights when I actually get to bed, I fall asleep fairly quickly. And, unless interrupted by nature’s call, I generally sleep until the alarm goes off. Actually, until the snooze alarm goes off several times.

We’re told that we’re healthier with the right amount of sleep. We’re told that losing weight needs the right amount of sleep.

Does it trouble me that I don’t get enough sleep? Sometimes. But I try not to lose any sleep over it.

I believe this.

365 Things I Believe is a revisioning of a year long web project. I initially launched the blog 365 Things I Believe because I think there are important things I have to say. There are eternal truths that are non-debatable, although I realize they’re not universally accepted.

So for a year I did a daily post of one thing I believe to be an indisputable truth. I’m relaunching here at The Write Side of My Brain and will continue through the next year to re-post (mostly) from the original project.

This time graphics and commentary are included. You can buy today’s print here. And, by the end of a year, if not sooner, you’ll be able to purchase the entire series in ebook format.
