A short YouTube monologue by Nate Tilley advising entrepreneurs to prioritize sleep, recovery, and routines — especially a nighttime routine — and framing entrepreneurship like athletics where energy management (not time management) is primary.
You know, a lot of people talk about having, like, a morning routine where they wake up and they exercise and they have their coffee and they don't check their emails and all of those kind of things, because, you know, sleep and recovery is really the most important thing.
