My mom has a vacation house about four hours from ours. Whenever we go, I create a massive list of tasks to maximize the car time, cramming in phone calls, email catch-up, and even writing these posts while Joe drives.
This past trip, I had an aha. Sleep was just as important as any of those items. I slept for two glorious hours. It was needed.
Too often we treat sleep as a nice-to-have versus as important as anything on your to-do list or schedule. My friend, Mike Malloy from the incubator, Halcyon, take this a step further by scheduling his nightly sleep into his calendar each night.
So today, add sleep to not only your to-do list but the top of it. Trust me, I get it. Sleep is my Achilles heel. Let's do this together. #selfcare
