    I’ve thought about this a ton. Depressing amount.

    I’ve decided to work on improving my quality of sleep drastically and have done it but it wasn’t easy to learn and study my body. In effort to maintain or increase the quality of measured and studied sleep to shave off 2 hours. From 8 hours to 6. Allowing me to live awake and hopefully enjoy 13.3 percent more of my life.

    Yes you can cut it down more and gain more living time. This is what I deem more acceptable and I slowly bring the time down more as my baseline improves.

    My best advice. Cool your body/brain and dial in your body temp use water cooling like a sleep 8 it’s expensive and subscription, so DIY your own use AI to dial it in if you can, live data. By plugging in your health data to it. Learn your sleep stages, wear a health tracker that’s accurate for heart rate, breathing, pulse ox, HRV, keep stress low and exercise regularly. Stick to a strict schedule of sleep and wake. Avoid fatty meals and snacking hours before bedtime, eat clean and healthy.

    There’s no magic bullet, most of its common sense. But you can make major gains if you dial in your body and listen to it. Tune into it. Don’t push through, feel and correct. There’s more but it’s late in my time zone.
