[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2083046, member: 1535"] Im sailing the same ship you are being on my own hours and self employed. I have no set hours to do anything, totally wide open. I work a couple of my own small businesses plus I co-own several other bigger businesses with partners. Luckily in my own businesses theyre not really daytime types of businesses anyways and my customers know me and my schedule and know I will get to them when I can, no problems. The businesses I have partners with I do what I can when Im there which gladly happen to be based in 2 other states so Im only there about 3 weeks or so out of every quarter. Any family function or really anything I have to do early morning though is challenging. People in my family have had a few medical procedures the last few years and getting to the hospital early A.M. and then the waiting room has really messed me up a few times but you just do it and go on, part of life. For me hiring assistants to help me with my stuff was a real blessing and totally worth the money. I recommend it to any busy self employed person, if you can justify the expense. Natural sleep remedies. I know more about chemical helpers than I do natural remedies even though I realize that alcohol or drugs are not the answers. Something natural to me would mean something that helps me relax my mind and body enough to enduce sleep. Meditation maybe, yoga, tai chi, martial arts, resistance workouts, tryptophan loaded foods, etc. The best thing that works for me is just old skool hard work. I have to be just totally exhausted at the end of my day, night, whatever. My lifelong moto has been that I dont fall asleep, I pass out, and I dont wake up, I come to. I have terrible sleep anxiety. Have had it my entire life. I cant wake to an alarm because I cant get to sleep if I know I am going to have to wake up at a specific time. My brain just cant deal with it. Simple and old fashioned, I just push myself when I am awake in my work or whatever I am doing to about as far as I physically can and then at the end of my version of a workday I just go to the nth hour and when I get tired I dont just get sleepy I go down like a 10ton brick. On really lazy days I go crazy if I dont have something to do, I cant just sit to the TV for hours like my kids do. [/QUOTE]
