Bedtime procrastination is killing your day #substack #shorts

So the first thing that I wanted to talk about that I find is so important and effective to really make the most of your day is sleep and getting ahead. I'm not a big fan of The 5 AM Club. I don't know if you've read it, but it's very prescriptive in terms of you have to wake up at a certain time. And it's not so much about what time you wake up, but actually creating a good habit, creating a good habit of sleep. Most humans need between 7 or 8 hours. And for me, it's more about how you create a good habit. Mm-hmm. The night before. When I was doing my research, I discovered that there's actually a type of procrastination that is called bedtime procrastination. And many of us struggle to do that, like to really have a healthy habit to go to bed early. And when you do that, what happens the next day is that in my case, for example, I wake up at 5:00 AM or sometimes even 4:30 AM without an alarm. I think that's the key. And when you have a good quality of sleep, you feel refreshed. You feel that you're ahead. There are 2 things that happen when you wake up early in the morning ahead of everyone else. One, your motivation tank and your willpower tank is full. And that means that you can really tackle any type of task, whether it's doing the track session like I just did, whether it's doing the admin tedious stuff. So whatever that might be, you're gonna have more motivation to do it. Second is, I call it the BS tank. The BS tank is where we have all our excuses, and that BS tank is gonna be empty in the morning. I can't say I'm too tired. I have had all these meetings. I have had all these calls. And so that's a good combination when you have your motivation tank full and the BS tank empty, because it really means that you're gonna be able to tackle whatever it is that gives you most resistance.
