Polyphasing – Day 5 Gone
Sleeping over the weekend took some effort but I think I did ok. Still overall tired and I was hoping to get a much better improvement by now. I’m not back to a hundred percent maybe because I choose a regime that is not so extreme so the body and mind take their time to adjust. And maybe because I’m not that strict on what I eat. And right now I’m mostly at the state of “If I could only have coffee, or pop in for another quick nap, I’ll be fine” but lucky for me I have great self control and I’m good at taking hits.
“It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.”

This is what I thought yesterday as after 22:00, when most people are winding down and don’t have the strength to do anything other that sit down and be a potato, I had manic energy enough to make food for me and Maayan (two different plates), do another load of dishes, clean the sink and the counter top.
And although I may feel like a normal day in which I didn’t sleep very well, I’m worried that with school coming back on tuesday, I might be not adapted enough. But I will persevere. Need to schedule an appointment with my doctor to keep track of this experiment and my health. And I hope I could get some security against future reserve service. That’s the biggest problem in my current schedule: What happens if I tell my commander I need three 20 minute naps throughout the day and he won’t except that?
