Are you a passionate Entrepreneur? Do you find yourself dragging on a regular basis as you get up too early and go to bed too late, frantically trying to get “everything done?” If so, don’t feel alone. Self-torture by sleep deprivation is a very common problem!

So what happens when you don’t get enough sleep? Plenty of bad stuff. Some of your organs stop functioning, you may become pre-diabetic, you function at an impaired level, and much much more. With all this being well documented in the medical journals, why are we so inclined to cheat ourselves of nature’s gift of sleep? The answer may lie in our shameful ignorance of the magical machine we live in.

Friends, your body is a temple! It is more sophisticated by a factor of 10, than anything that we can build. It’s also the only body that you have, so why not take care of it? In addition to good nutrition, the proper amount of sleep is ESSENTIAL to your body’s health and longevity. Six (6) hours is the absolute minimum requirement for a normal adult. Less than that can wreck havoc with the body’s immune system, bringing the opposite of productivity…sickness!

So what do do?
• Give yourself a bed time, and stick to it.
• Let your family and friends know your bedtime and give them “don’t call after” time
• Learn about ways to make sleep productive…yes you can actually solve problems while you snooze
• Recognize that one way to measure success is to plan your business so that you can actually stop working from time to time. Sleeping enough could lead to other big banana steps like paying yourself a salary, working out at the gym, and God Forbid, a vacation every now and then!
Remember that no one can take your healthy night of sleep away from you. Only you can give it away!
