Why this skill rocks

You'll know how to keep yourself feeling great and focused, whether you're studying for big tests or helping out at the Olympic events.
What You'll Need
Optional materials for this quest.
Blackout Curtains
RequiredBlock early morning light and streetlights that signal your brain to wake up before you intend to. Even in Utah winter, light comes early — blackout curtains are one of the highest-impact sleep environment upgrades.
Sleep Tracking Journal
RequiredA paper sleep log lets you notice patterns your phone app might miss. Logging mood, caffeine, and exercise alongside sleep time reveals what actually drives your best rest nights.
White Noise Machine
Consistent background sound masks traffic, neighbors, and the urban noise of the Wasatch Front that causes micro-arousals during light sleep stages. More reliable than a phone app running all night.
