lately i've been waking up with a random song stuck in my head, sometimes a song i haven't thought about in years, and today it was god bless america 🤔

i think when i sleep in it's sort of a signal to various other parts of me that i'm in depressed / weekend mode and nothing important is happening, and i've been sort of assuming the causality only goes the other way but it obviously doesn't
like i can fake it till i make it

i have a big ADHD counterwill thing around waking up early i think - like i've associated it very strongly with other people (parents, school) forcing me to do things
so it's good to teach myself i can wake up and continue to possess vast and boundless freedom

like "actually QC you thought sleeping in was freedom but that's not true, it turns out that freedom is freedom, and the earlier you wake up the more daylight hours you have for freedom"
wild stuff

I feel like my day is so much better if I can wake up early and get some early stuff done. The momentum carries straight through the rest of the day!

I always used to be a night owl, but last year completely shifted my circadian rhythm to be much more aligned with the sun. Turns out I love daylight soo much. The idea I could just *decide* to get up early without needing to was oddly mind blowing.
