The Simple Playbook For Sleep

Sleep is often underestimated, yet it’s one of the most powerful levers for improving productivity, health, and mental clarity. Here are the core points from the lesson:

  • Sleep has greater long-term health impact than alcohol or smoking, and chronic deprivation leads to worse mood, lower energy, and reduced cognitive function
  • Treating yourself as “a good sleeper” and following a consistent wind-down routine (e.g. reading, brushing teeth early, reflecting on the next day) can drastically improve sleep quality
  • Physical activity, especially group-based with accountability, helps regulate sleep and creates natural productivity deadlines
  • Even small efforts like 10–15 minutes of movement or consistent pre-bed rituals can create compounding benefits for both rest and output
