I'm Not Sleeping, I'm Succeeding


Did you know that over 40 million Americans aren't getting enough sleep these days? Seriously. We're so convinced that we need to over schedule our day, that we're going to be slacking in our quest for productivity if we have too much free time, that we cut sleep out of the equation.

Do you know what happens when you don't get enough sleep? I could be here all day explaining the ins and outs of what a chronic lack of sleep does to your body, but the short story is you're doing yourself more harm than good. Everyone requires 6 to 8 or even 10 hours of sleep, depending on your personal body clock. Less than that (most of us only get 4 to 6 hours of sleep a night) and your body stops working optimally.

You can't possibly succeed the way you want to succeed if you're too tired to think!
