If you’re not sleeping well enough, you’re not as successful as you could be. We’ve been where you are now: Tired all the time because we let our business drive crowd good sleep right out of our lives. Taking a little more time at the end of the day for yourself because the day was so long and hectic. Getting out of a sleep rhythm because of work demands. But we can help you solve the problem, and solving the problem will make you more successful. Your time asleep is almost as valuable to your success as your time awake. Listen to this episode if any of the following are true for you. I can say for me that every one of these has been a problem at some point. Collectively, they’ll kill you slowly. You have too much on your mind to sleep well. Your bedroom isn’t a sleep sanctuary free of electronics and distractions. Too much light filters into your room. Noises wake you up at night. You don’t give yourself a bedtime and go to sleep at wildly fluctuating times. You sleep in a warm bedroom. You’ve got no bedtime ritual. For us, it took career changes and other habitual life changes, but we, and many of our clients, now recognize good sleep as the lynchpin of success.
