How to maintain a regular schedule? Should work hours during entrepreneurship be the same as during work?

OK, hello, thank you for your question. I am learning in silence.

First of all, I have heard some lectures saying that entrepreneurs may spend a lot of time working. Let me be clear: it is very hard work.

It is important to understand that the purpose of starting a business is to enjoy the fruits of entrepreneurship. A reasonable work and rest schedule will make you more energetic and healthier.

Maintaining a good routine is essential. You must get enough rest and food to maintain sufficient physical strength and energy.

You said you have the habit of reading, meditating, and exercising, which is a very good habit. You must keep it up.

Over time, you will gain a good attitude and a relaxed and happy body and mind. This will undoubtedly be very helpful for your business.

Starting a business also requires a good body and mind. A good rest and work routine is a sufficient condition for maintaining sufficient physical strength.

Your idea is right and good. Get eight hours of sleep every day.

You should spend another hour or two reading, meditating, and exercising. Many successful entrepreneurs abroad have done this and seen great results.

And they look great as a whole, with a very good figure. So.

Go to bed early, get up early, and spend the rest of your time starting and struggling with your business. This is the path to a fulfilling life.

Reading in bed is perfectly fine. For me, it's a comfortable way to unwind.

Read. It's a good habit. If you're starting a business, I recommend two apps.

These are lectures given by executives from companies such as Baidu, Alibaba, Huawei, etc. They will be helpful to you. That's One Book One Lesson.

And Fan Deng Reading. Pay close attention to these two apps, especially Yishu Yike.

You will find their lectures helpful. Many people have started a business as an executive, and their lectures will definitely help you.

You will maintain good work and rest habits, and your business will be successful.

Reading the landlord's article, I feel that it's all about embracing your own unique self and rolling with the punches!

I am a listener who is absolutely thrilled to hear from you!

The article mentions that you are a person who values sleep very highly, but then stay up until dawn every day? I am very confused. I'd love to know more about what you mean by "valuing sleep highly."

Absolutely! You need to be self-disciplined during the start-up period and keep good habits.

It may have nothing to do with whether or not you start a business, and I don't understand why you start thinking about life issues such as love when you go to bed. Are these thoughts related to questions about starting a business? Whatever the answer, I'm excited to hear more!

[It is so great to know that you are a thoughtful person!]

When it comes to whether or not you need to stick to a regular sleep schedule, the answer is a resounding YES! The Chinese meridian and visceral organ theory clearly informs us of the different hours of the night and the appropriate times for each meridian and visceral organ.

As a creature of the world, following the rules of the world has a fantastic effect on your health and well-being!

You're determined to do it! So, how do you do it?

Maybe you've been under a lot of pressure for a while and just need to recharge before making any changes.

Embrace the challenge of changing bad habits and ultimately moving towards self-discipline! It's a very difficult process, but you can do it!

You can do it! Change just a little bit at a time. For example, go to bed half an hour earlier and wake up half an hour earlier every day.

The great news is that as long as one core habit changes, it will drive other changes!

The host of this forum is a book lover, and I'm thrilled to recommend a book to you:

[Microhabit]

Since you already want to start, then start now!

It's totally normal to have setbacks!

The great news is that the general rule of progress is a process of two steps forward and one step back!

So, if there are setbacks, remember that this is normal. Then take a step back, rest up, and continue! You've got this!

I'm rooting for the host to achieve his goal soon!

Hello, questioner! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. From what you wrote, I can tell you're highly motivated. When you were starting out, you had to do a lot of reading, so you preferred to stay up late. You're really interested in adjusting your work and rest schedule, but it's challenging to change, and you're not sure if it's necessary.

I actually think you already have the answer to questions like this.

First of all, should you stay up late during the start-up period? There's a saying that goes, "You can't change another person unless they're willing to change themselves!"

What are your thoughts on this sentence? For work efficiency, the morning isn't always the most productive time.

Some people work at night, while others work in the morning. Keep track of how you get things done at certain times of day and find your own peak times. Use them effectively, and you may not have to stay up all night after all.

What are your thoughts on this?

Second, find a fixed place for your studies and work. You mentioned you want to adjust your work and rest schedule, but it's tough to change. You're not sure if it's necessary, and you like to read in bed, so you're more relaxed. I've realized my own problems and am determined to change, but there are many things to do before going to bed.

Think carefully about whether you can make these adjustments. For example, remember that the bed is a place to sleep. So, tell yourself that you won't do work in bed, and you won't bring books or mobile phones into bed. Can you do this?

Are you up for the challenge of creating your own workspace?

Then, if you start your own business, do you have to stick to the same routine of going to bed at 11:30 pm and waking up at 7:30 am? Is 8 hours the time you actually lie down or the time you fall asleep?

My view is that going to bed early and waking up early is more in line with what our bodies need. If you can get eight hours of sleep, that's great. If not, it's better to take a nap at noon.

Money is important, but your health is the foundation of a revolution. We're already struggling with the epidemic, so why make things harder on ourselves? Don't you think?

Finally, focus on just one thing. It's hard for the brain to process multiple things at the same time.

Instead of focusing on the long term, it's better to focus on getting things done quickly. Split the two hours into two parts and focus on completing the content of your plan. Are you willing to give it a try?

I believe you already have the answer in your heart. Just do what you think is best. How will you know the result if you don't try? Do you agree?

As Yang Jiang said, "We used to chase after the waves of fate, but in the end, we realized that the most beautiful scenery in life is actually the calmness and equanimity within. We used to chase after external recognition, but in the end, we realized that the world belongs to you and has nothing to do with others."

Good morning, dear questioner!

My name is Yi Ming, and I'm a heart exploration coach.

You are embarking on an exciting new venture and are keen to establish a regular routine. However, you are feeling a little uncertain.

You are embarking on an exciting new venture and are keen to establish a regular routine. However, you are feeling a little uncertain.

I would be delighted to share what I know with you, and I hope it will be of some small inspiration to you.

1. Perhaps it would be helpful to consider being more flexible about your work and rest schedule and finding a way that suits you better.

You say, "During the start-up period, I need to read a lot, so I prefer to stay up late. I really want to adjust my work and rest schedule, but it's hard to change, and I'm not sure if it's necessary." What I'd like to share with you is:

One simple and intuitive way to assess the quality of your sleep is to observe how you feel when you wake up. Ideally, you should feel comfortable, full of energy, with focused attention, a good memory, and the ability to work efficiently. This will enable you to handle your work, studies, and life for the day.

If you can read at night with high efficiency and wake up full of energy without being disturbed, it might be worth considering whether you need to make any changes.

It is important to remember that the quality of sleep is not solely determined by the length of time spent asleep, but also by the efficiency of the sleep.

It is not uncommon for people to still feel tired and lack energy after sleeping for nearly 10 hours.

When you are starting your own business, you may find it helpful to be more self-disciplined and manage your time well.

It's a challenge, isn't it?

It might be helpful to try to find a way that suits you.

It might be helpful to consider setting aside time for relaxation and entertainment, as this can contribute to maintaining a positive state of mind.

I believe it may be beneficial to allow for a little more leisure time on the weekends, while maintaining the overall routine.

It is worth noting that the human body has a biological clock.

2. You may wish to consider using scientific methods to help yourself build a more efficient and happier life.

In the past, we have often discussed the importance of time management. Now, we would like to suggest that it may be helpful to consider energy management as well.

Teacher Chen Lijie has a particular expertise in the area of energy management.

Some people are very efficient and get a lot done in a day. They may go to bed early or wake up early, or they may have their own regular routine that helps them to form a biological clock.

When the time comes, they naturally fall asleep quickly.

I believe this could help you save a lot of time and avoid time-related problems.

It is also beneficial for physical and mental health.

Some people may experience fatigue even when they haven't done much.

There are a number of methods that could be helpful in this regard.

If it is of interest to you, you may wish to search for related content on Yi Xinli.

I would also like to respectfully offer some methods that I have found helpful in my own practice.

It may be helpful to consider prioritizing the most important things for yourself.

For instance, during the initial stages of a venture, it may be beneficial to prioritize tasks that align with your energy levels.

You may find it helpful to read for an hour at a time that suits you, such as before going to bed or first thing in the morning.

It might also be helpful to exercise regularly at the same time, as it can be a good way to relieve stress and help you to stay organized.

During the start-up period, it may be helpful to focus on your strengths to create positive feedback, while also recognizing your weaknesses and finding ways to improve.

It is also important to allow yourself to sometimes fail, to be more understanding of yourself, to allow yourself to have a gap between yourself and your ideal self, and to have a more peaceful state of mind.

I would also like to share with you the "Four Quadrants" theory proposed by Covey.

It may be helpful to classify events into four categories:

If I might suggest, let's consider those tasks that are both urgent and important.

It might be helpful to consider tasks that are important but not urgent.

Perhaps we could consider items that are urgent but not important.

Perhaps it would be helpful to consider these tasks as neither important nor urgent.

"It would be beneficial to prioritize tasks that are both urgent and important, and to complete them promptly."

If there are things that are important but not urgent, it would be helpful to try to find time to do them.

It may be helpful to consider that urgent but unimportant tasks can often be completed with the assistance of others.

It might be helpful to consider that some tasks may not be both important and urgent, and could therefore be put off for a while.

You may choose to decline tasks that are not essential or that someone else can perform.

I believe that with this kind of management, it would be easier for us to get everything organized.

Perhaps it would be beneficial to practice this a little by ourselves.

If you feel so inclined, please feel free to share these.

If it is of interest to you, you may also wish to read the book entitled "High-Energy Important Events."

I hope this finds you well.

Good evening, group leader!

Let me share some thoughts with you! First of all, regarding sleep, in medical terms, we say that if you sleep for 8 hours, it is considered a high-quality sleep. It depends on your own state to assess whether you can achieve such a sleep duration. Then it also depends on whether we are in deep sleep or how we sleep. From the question, I can see that you are thinking about some issues that affect our sleep, or you are struggling with the duration of sleep. Then, especially in psychology, a Morita therapy is very suitable for you. You can learn about Morita therapy and do Morita training. Through professional training, we can help you let go of your thoughts in your mind, and change your inner anxiety and uneasiness from the perspective of thinking about your life, your love, and even your sleep. We can also explore whether your personality has the element of pursuing perfection. Through such continuous self-exploration, it may be extremely helpful for your inner growth, and it can also help you in the entrepreneurial stage to communicate with others, including your ability to act.

In the question, the author talks about meditation, and I'm excited to share that we can do this for 15 minutes every day at a fixed time to relax our nerves and give ourselves time to rest. Of course, if you consider it according to your own schedule, you can do it at irregular times. When we feel tired or sleepy or when our thoughts occupy most of our energy, we can also do meditation to relax and relieve stress. After such a break, we can adjust our state of mind and do the things we want to do!

On top of that, we can say that a work schedule of 8 to 5 is normal. For instance, it's normal for us to go to bed at 10 o'clock and get up at 7 o'clock. Everyone has a different self-perception, and when everyone's growth and working environment are different, we also have different ideas about what is a normal work schedule. I hope you are happy! What is the source of happiness? It's doing what we can do, what we insist on doing, and what we cannot do no matter how much we want to. Let me give you a quote from when I was doing Morita training: "You can never finish something if you don't do it."

If you want to switch to the questioner's side, I think it might be that if you don't sleep, you will never be able to sleep. But here's the good news: if you don't adjust your work and rest time, you will always be stuck on what is considered a normal work and rest schedule. I believe that the clever and wise questioner will definitely get results!

I'm a professional counselor, and I love you all!
