Basically: I heard the phrase people that sleep less live and enjoy life twice as long. While I can't say I necessarily enjoy living much now, I want more to do with my time.
So for the last few weeks I've tried to minimize sleeping to one or two hours per day, waking up to an absurdly obnoxious alarm then going immediately for a cold shower and coffee. At first it did not work out well at all and I lapsed into random naps, but so far now there's really been no ill feelings and I've accustomed to this lifestyle routine. Before I went through the usual full sleep cycles any adult does.
I'm wondering why the idea of minimizing sleep is not more popular and people simply enjoy sleeping. It's a waste of time and life to sleep and, while no one has to go to the same time lengths of 1 - 2 hours, less than 7 hours is still not popular.
