The Simple Trick to Getting a Great Night’s Sleep
It’s not that complicated.
It’s 1 am, maybe later.
I’m tired, but I feel like I should be doing something. I feel like I haven’t earned the right to sleep. Maybe if I get a head start on tomorrow’s goals, I’ll finally feel like I deserve it.
“I’ll relax later,” I say.
Maybe you can relate. For one reason or another, you can almost never actually just get a good night’s sleep. You can’t do it the way all those books and articles say you should. It’s never as simple as just making sleep a priority. How great that would be.
