TJ Walker, in a short YouTube habit-tip video, argues that picking a consistent bedtime and sticking to it is a more important productivity habit than waking early. He gives a personal example—"Mine's 10pm"—and recommends turning off TVs and screens about an hour before bedtime to ensure sufficient sleep and prevent the next day from being disrupted by late-night viewing.

Wow, you're really gonna think I'm boring today. But the habit I want to discuss is something I think is truly important, and it doesn't get enough attention. People like to talk about getting up early, getting up at 5am to me, the far more important habit is picking a set bedtime every night. Now, yours could be 1am midnight. Mine's 10pm that means at 9am I had to turn off a TV, any electric screens, phones. That allows me to get enough sleep so I wake up on time to get the day off. Right? It's never been easier to stay up late and watch one more Netflix show, one more HBO show. But if I do that, it messes up the whole next day. Pick a bedtime and stick with it.
