Yep. But it's worse: There's no guarantee the first one won't blab either. They both might have learned the secret together at the same time (say, they come across buried treasure). Two people can keep a secret if they're both dead.

Real tip... take long deep breaths instead. Absorb oxygen.

I did. Woke up on the floor in a pool of my own blood after hitting my head on the table corner.

LPT: be careful with underqualified medical advice

this is anemia? didn’t know this. i usually cant see when i stand up too quickly.

I hate when you shake someone's hand and now they've marked you as theirs.

Why I don’t tell my mom anything anymore lol took me a long time but I finally learned.

I was going to suggest this, except with music and/or podcasts! Then you can still do whatever you need to do first thing in the morning at the same time. As a non-morning person who is forced into an early schedule for work, it's the only thing that makes me not hate every second of my morning

How is clenching your core muscles a bad idea? You sound dumb.

Stretch, get sunlight, have a juice or coffee or breakfast that you’re looking forward to :)

Silence is golden. Besides, sharing secrets is very intimate.

Embrace the suck. Wake up with a (fake) "Let's Fuckin Go" attitude. Fake it till you make it. Pretend you are fuckin stoked about getting up early. Gonna go fuck the day or something.

This is the military way. Get motivated, even if you have to fake it.

I actually had a boss who used to spread rumors about himself to see how far and fast they would spread. It was pretty funny tbh. Probably because I got to be in on the secret.

I used to use a sleep cycle calculator and found that it actually helped! You say when you need to wake up and it recommends what time you should go to bed so you get full sleep cycles.

I used to use sleepyti.me. Looks like it’s changed names but still has the same function: https://sleepopolis.com/calculators/sleep/

To be honest . Most people at work call me a a-hole , damn right I ain’t here to talk to you I am here’s to make my money :D

Can also be caused by low blood pressure when changing positions; orthostatic hypotension.

The trick there is to 'bear down' and exhale slowly and forcefully through pursed lips when standing. This raises the BP just enough to *usually* avoid the head rush. This can be pivotal for at-risk populations.

Don't hit the snooze button. That makes you even more tired because you are entering deep sleep again.

Go to bed early, no screen time for an hour before bed, no food for 3 hours before bed. I preload the coffee so I just need to wake and brew. 15 minute of drinking coffee and quiet reflection, then some exercise. This is what works for me.

plabn your sleep cycles. someone said we sleep like 90 minutes per cycle. try getting up between cycles.

Yeah with anything I'm told I don't say shit but some of it is real funny

Having breakfast before I have to deal with people helps. I eat before I leave the house so it has taken effect by the time I get to work.

It should go without saying that going to bed at a reasonable time to be sufficiently rested is important too.

This feels like an All-American LifeProTip. Don’t see the doctor, it costs too much ! Do a squat instead !

The point here, and of this whole post, being... watch what you say to others, especially people you work with.
