Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, everyone, welcome back to less dopamine, more discipline. I'm
your host, Jackson Read. And if you're anything like me,
you've probably hit that wall where you just can't seem
to focus, brain fog, midday slumps forgetting what you were
doing five seconds ago. We've all been there, right. Well,
guess what. I'm here to tell you that your sleep
schedule might be the missing piece of the puzzle. We

(00:22):
live in a world obsessed with hustle, culture and productivity.
But let's be real. Pushing ourselves without prioritizing rest is
like trying to run a marathon on an empty tank.
You're going to crash and burn. So today we're diving
deep into how to create a healthy sleep schedule that
actually boosts your focus. Now, I know what you might
be thinking, Jackson. Easier said than done, But trust me,

(00:44):
it doesn't have to be a herculean effort. It's all
about making small, sustainable changes that add up to big results.
Think of it like this. Sleep is your brain's nightly
reset button. When you give it the proper time and
environment to recharge, you wake up feeling refreshed, energized, and
ready to tackle anything. First things first, let's talk consistency.

(01:05):
Your body thrives on routine, so try to go to
bed and wake up around the same time each day,
even on weekends. I know, I know, it can be
tempting to sleep in on Saturday morning, but trust me,
those extra hours of sleep won't necessarily make you feel
more refreshed. In fact, disrupting your sleep wake cycle can
actually leave you feeling groggier and less focused throughout the week.

(01:27):
Speaking of consistency, let's talk about that pre sleep ritual.
Ever heard the saying wind down? That means ditching the
screens at least an hour before bed. The blue light
emitted from those phones, tablets, and laptops can interfere with
your melotonin production, the hormone responsible for regulating sleep. Instead
up for a relaxing activity like reading, taking a warm bath,

(01:48):
or listening to calming music. Think of it as transitioning
your brain from go mode to chill mode. Next up,
let's talk about your bedroom environment. Is it dark, cool,
comfortable you? Your bedroom should be a haven for sleep,
not a battleground against distractions. Invest in blackout curtains, earplugs,
or a white noise machine if needed, and keep that

(02:09):
temperature around sixty five degrees fahrenheit. A little cool is
ideal for sleep. Now, let me tell you about something
I learned from a sleep expert. Once, avoid caffeine and
alcohol before bed. You might think that evening glass of
wine helps you unwined, but it can actually disrupt your
sleep later on. Caffeine is a stimulant that can keep
you awake even hours after you've had your last cup,

(02:32):
So steer clear of coffee and energy drinks in the
afternoon and evening. Finally, and this is crucial, exercise regularly. Now.
I'm not saying you have to be training for a
marathon though if you are, more power to you, but
even moderate exercise can improve your sleep quality. Just try
to avoid intense workouts right before bed. Let me give
you a real world example. Think about that friend who

(02:54):
always seems to be running on fumes, constantly hitting the
snooze button, and struggling to focus to meetings. They probably
haven't prioritized their sleep schedule, but imagine them taking these
tips to heart, establishing a consistent bedtime, creating a relaxing
pre sleep routine, optimizing their bedroom environment. Suddenly they're waking
up feeling refreshed, energized and ready to conquer the day.

(03:18):
Remember this isn't about being perfect, it's about making small
changes that add up to big results. So start by
focusing on one or two of these tips and gradually
incorporate more over time. You might be surprised at how
much difference a good night's sleep can make in your focus, productivity,
and overall well being. So there you have it. Five
key takeaways to help you create a healthy sleep schedule

(03:41):
that fuels your focus. Remember consistency as king, wind down
before bed, optimize your bedroom environment, avoid caffeine and alcohol
before bedtime, and get moving. You've got this now, go
out there and slay the day, but don't forget to
catch those zzs until next time. Keep it focused and
remember less dopamine, more discipline. This podcast is created with
