Bryan Johnson says consistent, high-quality sleep is the single most important thing you can do for your health. He treats it like a lighthouse you can't negotiate with. His family has a strict rule: when lights go out, everyone goes to bed, no excuses.
Get good sleep and get it consistently. That's your number one objective in life. In my family, we treat sleep like a lighthouse. You cannot negotiate with a lighthouse. If you try to overpower it, you're going to run your ship into the rocks and you're going to sink. There's never a legitimate excuse for work or for play or for watching a movie or whatever the case may be. When our bedtime arrives in the family, all lights shut off, everyone runs to their bedroom, and we do it because we are our best self and we get good sleep.
