It feels really great to wake up at the same time every day. Who knew? I had a random sleep schedule during the last few years and, although is had its benefits, I think that fixed sleep schedule is a better choice, because:

• It makes me a bit more productive
• It gets dark very early in Thailand so waking up early allows me to get more natural sunlight
• My dog appreciates fixed schedule since dogs are creatures of habit, and they like to know when they will get their food or go for a walk
