EXPERIMENT LOG · DAY 1–30
I woke up at 5am for 30 days
What actually changed, what didn’t, and whether I’m still doing it.
Days 1–7
Pure misery. Zero output.
I sat on the sofa at 5:15 scrolling the same feed I’d have scrolled in bed. Waking early does nothing on its own.
Days 8–21
Then the quiet kicked in.
Once I went to bed at 9:30, the first two hours became the only time nobody needed me. I wrote 14,000 words.
Days 22–30
The social cost is real.
Two dinners skipped, one wedding where I left at ten. Mornings got better, evenings got smaller.
The numbers
Verdict: keeping it on weekdays only. The habit isn’t 5am. It’s the protected hour.
What should I test next?
