Nathan Miller did deep work on 3 hours of sleep by cutting dopamine hits: no YouTube, no distractions. His mind stayed locked on the task with no wandering thoughts. The experiment worked.
Couple hours into deep work, and honestly, it does work really well. One thing I've just been trying to limit, like, any distractions. So because I just set my dopamine baseline lower, and it was lower, I just tried to make sure I didn't, like, watch anything, any YouTube or anything on my computer, and just go on straight to work. And it's been good. I've been working and I haven't even thought about anything else really. So super solid.
