Time table during the 4-week bootcamp study. Used coffee or cola, never used Red Bull or alcohol:

6:00am sharp. Woke up and showered, and took 30 minutes morning walk, had good breakfast and coffee. Study in spring months were good because the sunrise were early.

7:00 am - 12:00 noon. Morning study and stay focus, read each chapter and thought how I would apply to real-life, re-read and re-think if necessary until I understood the chapter and LOS. Important: 10-minute break for every 50-minute study.

12:00 noon - 12:30 pm. Lunch break and email time.

12:30pm - 5:30pm. Aftenoon study and repeated the morning pattern, and 50/10 short breaks. Increased caffeine dose to offset sleepy afternoon.

5:30pm - 6:00pm. Dinner break and email time.

6:00pm - 11:00pm. Evening study. No caffeine. Finished at 10:30pm if completed a study session early.

11:00 pm - 6:00am. Slept and rejuvenated body function.


That contributed up to 15 hours each day. I ran errand when absolutely necessary, but limited to no more than 3 hours of total errand time each day.

Good luck.
