If you get to tired make sure to get some real sleep. 's not how it works. You get really exhausted, forcing your body into the different mode of sleeping. This is really rough for a week. If you maintain it though, you get to do it without the effort.

Especially if a bunch of stupid people on the Internet are egging him on in the form of "bets" to do it.

Also, a 17 year old having a cardiac arrest is highly unlikely. If he was 60 I'd say "don't do it man".

Uberman is way too strict and very hard to adjust to. I'd recommend trying the SPAMAYL plan if you fail this one. I did it for a summer and everything went smoothly, only stopped because of external sources. I don't see much positive responses in the thread you linked to though.

I did it for a summer and everything went smoothly, only stopped because of external sources. I've made myself fall asleep quite well. I feel just fine but that might be normal for the second day. We'll see me my fate all in good time.

Sleeping in a public restroom hardly works especially when it's for one person. I got my sleep in but there was a line outside the door. Lovely.
2nd day, 7th nap.
My mood is good, I'm well fed and hydrated. This still seems feasible.

and the time you win by not sleeping is not lost again by thinking, writing, planning, posting, recording .... about your progress?
As much as I appriciate reading about your progress I really wonder if this sleep schedule is supposed to work without effort and easy why is there do people that adhere to it - not just adhere to it and thats it. Kind of like vegetarians or gay folks.

don't let me make you question your assumptions

Heh. It is effortless to document. It takes no more than 10 minutes and I feel this needs to be documented for posterity. The value is inherent. I would love to see humanity to sleep less and do more (if individuals wish to). From what I'm reading, I seem to be an exception. Most people would be pretty zombified by now. As for me, I feel normal. I might be genetically apt and/or psychologically honed for this. I only had a small period where I felt tempted to sleep and that was eased with philosophy and Harvard Classics.

Your previous experience with alternate sleep schedules probably helps, and has taught your body to take a decent amount of rest out of those 20 minute naps. Also, being young helps ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I expect you to have some trouble at the end of the third day though… As much as I appriciate reading about your progress I really wonder if this sleep schedule is supposed to work without effort and easy why is there do people that adhere to it - not just adhere to it and thats it.

My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like.

To purport significant meaning and attachment over decisions and wants is to go as far as to deny what life should be truly like: as it is.
