Want to feel good? Sleep MORE…

written by john c ashworth

I'm sitting here at my desk and wondering why in the world I feel so good today; and then it occurs to me...I got a lot of sleep last night 🙂

Sounds a little silly when I say it out loud, but that's the truth and that's why SLEEP is one of my three words for the year.

I know we all struggle with this, and that we all have good logical reasons why we struggle to get MORE sleep. Life is busy, especially for parents like Laura and I. Parents who work full-time and more, and who are devoted to providing our kids the kind of opportunities in life that should not be taken for granted. Sometimes you have to give up a little sleep to make all that happen.

But there are plenty of other times when sleep becomes elusive as a result of bad habits or loose organization in the evenings. I find that when I commit to it and make it a priority and focus my evening on turning out the lights at a certain specific time, that I can make it all happen a lot more often.

Sleep more this year. You'll probably live longer, but more importantly, it won't feel longer 🙂
