The goal

Sleep at least 7 hours on most nights by the end of the quarter

Make it yours: change the highlighted parts, the numbers and the wording. In Ascanti the dates are set from the quarter you start in.

How you'll know you got there

7 or more hours on at least 5 nights a week, and waking up rested.

Why this works

Better sleep usually comes from a few unexciting basics done consistently: a steady wake-up time, a wind-down routine, less screen time and caffeine late in the day, and a dark, cool room. This plan changes one thing at a time and tracks how you feel, not just the hours.

A note of care: If you have ongoing trouble sleeping, snore heavily or feel very tired during the day, talk to a doctor.

Milestones

One checkpoint for each month of the quarter.
