He goes to work. He comes home. He eats dinner, washes the dishes, and then takes a 20-minute nap. In the afternoon, he sometimes goes out with friends, plays basketball, or fixes something around the house. At night, he almost always has some time left to read a book. He goes to bed before 11 PM and sleeps like a baby. That morning, when they run into each other, Esteban asks Marcel curiously, "How is it possible that after a little over 7 hours of sleep, you're full of energy? While I'm sleepy even though I sleep 9 hours?" Marcel smiles. "It's because sleeping well doesn't start when you turn off the lights. It starts from the moment you wake up. That's why you see me jogging in the morning. Every movement raises your body temperature, and higher temperature is a signal for the body to focus and stay alert. Plus, during the day, the increase in temperature, and the deeper the drop at night, the deeper your sleep will be. On the other hand, exposing yourself to daylight lowers the level of melatonin in your body. Melatonin is a hormone of sleep. The lower the level, the less tired, and more alert I feel. And the higher the level, the sleepier I get. That's why I stay outside whenever I can and protect my melatonin levels at night. After 8 PM, I don't use screens, and I also avoid bright lights. Remember one thing: Your habits will define the quality of your sleep and your energy levels during the day. By the way, if YOU want to transform your LIFE... and also want to transform your life, I recommend reading or listening to Atomic Habits by James Clear. Your habits will define the quality of your sleep and your energy levels during the day.
