state of mind before falling asleep
The state of mind before you fall asleep can determine not only how well you sleep but also how your day was, and what mental state you are in.
1. wide awake , and have to force yourself to sleep- because your day has been boring and uneventful. reserved for lazy trust fund babies, slackers, boring jobs, or self employed.
2. drunk and passed out - so wired, boozed up, or partied out, that your brain no longer functions, and sleep is acheived before taking off clothing or sometimes even reaching the bed.
3. stressed tired - brain is worn out from the days fire fighting, and tomorrows uncertainity and impending failure. REM may not be reached, and perhapes in a constant state of nightmares and flashbacks of self doubt.
4. busy tired - a relatively satisfying day of both emotionaly, spiritual or intellectual tiredness in which REM is reached within 10 minutes of lying down.
5. physically tired - body shuts down and takes the brain with it, forcing REM immediately irregardless of morning alarms, or pissed off significant others.
For anyone who has been through final exams, waiting for clients decision, law suit, strike, startup, tax audit, boot camp, football 2 a days, p-scan individuals, dysfunctional families, or just boredom, then one have most likely experienced all 5 types.
Preferences, personally,
I would take busy tired
over, physical tired
over wide awake
over drunk & passed out
over stress tired
A life is considered good if it is a mixture of the first 4 preferences, rather than a combination of the last 3.
