Sleep is not a luxury. It’s a necessity (and a secret weapon for elite productivity).

So make deep sleep a priority. Bonus tip: the key to a superb morning routine is an excellent pre-sleep ritual (and not much good happens after 9pm so why not go to bed then?).

In today’s episode I walk you through the practices used by many of the world’s most successful athletes, artists and entrepreneurs to install the habits of deep success, peak health and high prosperity.

My latest book “The Wealth Money Can’t Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I’m absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness. You can order it now by clicking here.

The holy hour and getting up at five o'clock and giving yourself those 60 minutes to prepare yourself to be world class during your work day and in your private life doesn't mean you sacrifice sleep. You know, in the social media, people say, well, you know, I need sleep. Well, according to very good science, the number one way we cut our longevity is we don't get enough sleep. Mariah Carey says I need 15 hours of sleep a day, and this is pretty interesting. She sleeps with 20 humidifiers around her, according to Business Insider. 20 humidifiers around her, she says, it's like sleeping in a sauna. But that works for her, and that's what she needs. Winston Churchill. He loved to nap, just like John F. Kennedy. I love to nap. It's one of my secret, I don't like the word weapon, but it's a positive weapon. I get up usually at 4.15, but in the late afternoon, I learned this from my dad, I take a nap, and it just reinvigorates me. Final example of someone who just experimented and they found the right sleep cycle for them was DaVinci. And this is called, I think you'll love this, the Uberman Sleep Cycle. Every four hours, Leonardo DaVinci would nap or sleep deeply for 20 minutes. Find the sleep cycle that works for you, but this is a key ritual that you wanna wrap into your life to get big things done.
