Acapulco Sunrise: Striving for an Earlier Start
John's been getting up earlier than me lately and this photo shoot is a bit of proof of that. While I have enjoyed the extra sleep I think I'm going to start making a point to get up earlier in the future. On days with early starts I generally get a lot more done and I have the choice of doing my physical tasks during the morning hours.
Today I woke up at about 11 and I felt the consequences. By the time I was really ready to start my work it was already oppressively hot making it hard to keep at it.
I notice a distinct difference in everything from pain levels to energy levels in days started earlier. I think it likely has something to do with the fact that I end up doing most of my work during the morning when it's not hot yet, leaving myself to focus on less physically demanding tasks as the day goes on.
I've got a long way to go guys and many things to change. I'm finally starting to feel motivated by that fact instead of overwhelmed.

Really interesting thought on that. Early to bed early to wake. Our body is a massive system driven by its internal clock. If you make it a point of duty to go to bed early, its easier to wake earlier. And like you rightly pointed out, doing tasks early in the morning makes a lot of sense. Apart from accomplishing much by sundown, you get to do things with brand new energy and in a body fully rested and recovered. I love your really nice pictures of the city. Thanks @lily-da-vine for sharing.
Lovely photos, as usual. The sunrise is such a nice draw. We can't get enough of them, can we?
I've recently jumped on to correcting my circadian rhythm. Even in Acapulco you've got the blue light of screens every day. I made a post about how I started and to track my progress.
Occasionally, on my days off, I'll go to bed at 10 and get up no later than 9:30. That is the latest I've slept since I've started. I attribute that to not having fully corrected my rhythm though, and can usually identify where I went wrong. It's not a complicated process. Not all that tough either. Just takes some getting used to
I have been sleeping a load better recently after doing a candida cleanse and eating better. Diet and gut flora can contribute a lot to how much and high quality sleep you get.
