The most underrated way to improve your health is by getting better sleep. But the opposite is also true: the best way to ruin your health is by not optimizing your sleep.

Trust me, this is not something you can postpone, and in this newsletter, I’ll show you exactly why, and how to make sure you optimize your sleep correctly so you can not only extend your life (literally) but also sleep smarter.

I used to be the guy who “could live on 3h of sleep” until I passed out in the middle of a test.

Throughout my entire high school years and my first 2 years in college, I had severe insomnia. I just couldn’t sleep more than 2-3 hours at a time.

That’s one of the reasons I got so into the NBA and the NFL at a young age, cause there was literally nothing else to do/watch at 3-4 am.

And I kept this up until my junior year. I thought it was just the way I was and that there was nothing I could do about it.

One day, after pulling an all-nighter before a test (which was pretty common for me), I fell asleep in the middle of the test.

And at that moment, I decided to get serious about my sleep and fixing it. And thanks God I did, because the moment I started researching about sleep, I realized it was a much bigger deal than I thought…
