Here’s Your Productivity Hack: Go the F*ck to Sleep

Sleep isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Sure, some people get by on less, but for most of us, losing sleep means losing productivity, focus, and clarity.

The myth that sacrificing sleep equals dedication is harmful. In reality, it’s poor planning, not some heroic effort.

I prioritize 7-8 hours every night, even during deadlines or busy periods. It’s why I hardly ever need stimulants.

Studies show that top performers—whether entrepreneurs or artists—don’t deprive themselves of sleep.

They optimize their rest because they know their best work comes from being well-rested.

The truth is, pushing beyond your limits might feel impressive, but it leads to burnout.

Guard your energy, prioritize rest, and when you’re tired—sleep. Then come back stronger. That’s how the greats do it.
