I’ve had to learn how to use my time wisely and balance everythign in a way where it works to my advantage and still allows me a few moments to relax or chill. A typical day for me now is getting up, eating breakfast, taking my meds, showering and going to work at 10 am. My normal daily work shift is 10:00 – 6:30 most days. If any ideas pop into my head, I’ll pull out my notepad that I keep in my back pocket or a post it and write it down. On my first 15 minute break I will eat my lunch, on my 30 minute lunch break, I will pull out my laptop and either write, type up some things on my book or I will get caught up on my school work. On my last 15 minute break I will eat my dinner. After work I head to the gym and workout for 45 minutes to an hour (on the days when the gym is closed by the time I get off, i’ll get a 20 minute walk in on my 30 minute lunch break). After that I’ll either head home to do more school work or write some more, or I will head to Barnes and Noble to do the same. At 9:00 pm I take my night meds and have a small snack. Then I will get back on my school work and writing social networking, etc. Usually around midnight I shut it all down and will either play a few games on my tablet, talk to some folks on facebook, right a little bit more in my notepad or turn something on Netflix until I fall asleep.
