Hi MEMORPHING,
Regarding months instead of weeks: Me too!!!
I got to bed "on time" 2-3 times during each of the Sleep Challenge Weeks 1-2. But I've actually been working on this for months, with the same rate of success...
It feels like such a mystery: Will tonight be one of those magic nights when I'm able to tick chores off on time and get to bed, or will tonight be back to the "old normal" when everything seems to take longer than planned, and I have to pick and choose between basic needs (prepping food, exercising, kitty litter, and sleep)? (I don't even have kids -- how do parents do this?!?)
What will it take for me to make some consistent progress? I have recently made bed time my second-highest priority (after getting to work on time, but ahead of walking, prepping food, and playing with cats). I can only trust that with practice and time -- possibly months -- I'll start to get more reliable.
I'm not used to having to struggle so hard with something so basic. I'm a fast learner, and I like getting things done. This is taking more humility and patience than I'm accustomed to!

If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again.
