#225 Sleep easy

Often I have joked with my friends who have difficulty sleeping about their “superpower” of having more time throughout the day. 8 hours of sleep cut out of a 24 hour day leaves one with 16 hours, where the restless mind may have 20. While in jest, there is a truth to the idea and most importantly a revelation in the value of time and it’s management (something I struggle with). 4 extra hours a day comes out to 1,424 hours a year, coming out to almost 60 days a year! Imagine competing in any field against someone who held 60 days of practice over you! While sleep might be the most beneficial form of regeneration for us, there’s no secret to why many of the successful are routinely early risers (Tony Robbins, Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Johnson etc).
