I realized something last night, as I crawled into bed after a very full day...it is so much more satisfying to go to bed after you've been busy and productive. You appreciate the sweet relief of being off your feet and sleep comes effortlessly.
I remember back when I was unemployed and would get home after 1-3 hours of school and spend the rest of the afternoon/evening on the couch. When I went to bed I didn't feel grateful for the time to rest; I didn't feel proud of the day's accomplishment...I was actually more stressed thinking about all the things I should have done that were going to carry over tomorrow.
Long story short: collapsing in bed, knowing you did everything that you could do that day is a very rewarding feeling.
