How do you get to sleep? - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

crossfittn · 02-15-2007, 01:58 AM

I have a lot of trouble getting to sleep because I'm always too excited about developments with my business. I'm trying to go to sleep but my head is always flowing with ideas, and then once I get too tired for ideas to pop into my head, my goals start popping into my head... and that's bad too because there's nothing NOT exciting about a ferrari f430 or a zonda.

It's a crisp backburner with a squirrel homebase upon a 3 piece tundra along the rim of the alabaster jar.

I work until I can barely stay awake, then I go to bed.

Antz · 02-15-2007, 02:16 AM

I need sleep, gotta get up at 7:30 for school

Just watch a movie whilst getting to sleep.. and read - that takes my mind of everything else. Dan Browns books rock!

jerxs · 02-15-2007, 02:17 AM

beer and painkillers

joe · 02-15-2007, 02:26 AM

I just go to sleep when I feel the need to.

Th3Boss · 02-15-2007, 02:28 AM

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem, It got so bad for me last year that I had to get some pills from the doctor and let me tell you thats the shit, take them 30 mintues before bed and your fucking knocked out for the next 8 hours.

But he only gave them too me when it got to the point of 3 hours per sleep a night for 6 months straight.........impossible you might say.......fucking try it.......I know the true meaning to the word insomnia.

Unfortunatly after 2 months of taking them I'm no longer allowed to go near them because there super addictive but when your on them you get the best sleep you'll ever have.

I'm slowly starting to get back into that crap no sleep routine again, I'm down to 5 hours of sleep per night as it is, sometimes if I"m lucky I'll get 6 hours.

So to anyone thinking of getting into this business my first advice is buy a HUGE coffee pot, cause your gonna need it.

Ben · 02-15-2007, 02:44 AM

Read until your eyes are tired, or watch a movie you love but have seen a million times. Braveheart works for me.

It's hard to separate your mind from work when it is so easy to work, just occupy your mind with something else.

NoelKuhl · 02-15-2007, 02:47 AM

I sleep every other night. It used to be hard but I'm fully adjusted now. I keep it up even over the weekends and holidays.

I have the same problem. I'll be in bed with a million ideas running through my head. Then, I'll get out of bed, fire up the computer, spend about 20 minutes doing whatver it was I was thinking of... and finally convince myself to go back to bed.

Then, the second I lay down again, I repeat the cycle.

But, the solution is simple.

My nightly ritual consists of a six pack of beer + 3 benadryls.

Works nicely for me.

ImagesAndWords · 02-15-2007, 03:29 AM

Or... like in my case; I go to bed with my wife talking her ears off about my arbi and affiliate endeveaours until she's bored to sleep, and eventually I pass out myself

carlj · 02-15-2007, 08:09 AM

i usually sleep at 2-3 am, thats when i feel really

Jan · 02-15-2007, 08:11 AM

I wait till I get to my wage earning job to sleep!

Release the ideas from your brain. Put a notebook by your bed and make a new folder on your computer "Ideas". Write down the ideas. I tend to go over the same ideas with new details over and over like I'm trying to memorize it or something! Writing it down seems to help stop that and it makes "room" for fresh ideas to sprout!

Praying till I fall asleep helps me also.

Reefer420 · 02-15-2007, 10:06 AM

i used to sleep 3 hrs a night when i had to commute 2.5 hours to my job - I would catch up on the bus in the morning. After about 6 months I was pretty much a zombie during the day and was pretty unhealthy.

Now I live 30 mins from my job so I can still get 6 hours - I always tend to wake up at night and be brain dead all day. I basically drink 2-3 glasses of wine and read for 30mins before bed.

Oh and if you are still in college and talking about this then wait and see how your life changes once you are out of the college bubble - I could drink until 5 am, get up for tailgates the next morning at 7 - and then drink until 5 am the next morning... then still get up at noon the next day and study. I think if I did that now I would die!

radnam · 02-16-2007, 05:42 AM

The madbox in the corner gets me to sleep and after working 16 hours daily sometimes dont even need that

And also one more thing my girlfriends blabbering on the phone also helps me sleep

illusion · 02-16-2007, 05:46 AM

I used to have that problem, so I would just say, if I don't get to sleep in the next 10 minutes I am putting my alarm on for 6:00 AM, then just have my alarm wake the shit out of me and bam I am so shit tired in the evening I get to sleep early sometimes
