    I mean… You do retrain your routine twice a year when the clocks change. If it weren’t for that you could do it more gradually to make it easier. Maybe 15 mins earlier/later a day.

      Not really. My routine doesn’t change based on the clock, which is what matters. The same things happen at the same time every day. The time might be shifted, but it still occurs at the same clock time. If the clock time doesn’t shift, then you have to consciously remember things that used to start at 9 now start at 8, which results in a lot more confusion and disruption of schedule

        I see - you mean “the things you think about” don’t change. I meant your routine changes in that you shift “when” you get up each day when the clocks change.
