How long have you been participating in the Clock Your Sleep project?:

1 month or more

Has your sleep changed since you started tracking it?:

Yes, in another way

How your sleep has changed:

More of an attempt to go to bed at the same time every night, to get adequate sleep.

What did you learn about your sleep patterns once you started tracking them?:

Awareness:
1) I get one hour less sleep than I thought.
2) I have increased awareness that I would like to make the time I want to go to bed sacred. (Note: I have not yet committed to the time as sacred, but just have awareness that I would like to get there).
3) it usually takes me zero minutes to fall asleep, which makes me think I should go to bed earlier

Have you tried to change any of your behavior as a result of this study?:

Trying to go to sleep at the same time everyday to get adequate sleep. Also, seeing a stronger awareness during the day that sleep depravation affects so many things in my day: attitude, capability, mood, confidence/can do attitude. This is totally amazing that there is this correlation!!!

Tell us how the Clock Your Sleep project is going.
