The Productivity of Sleep

Your brain uses more energy when you sleep than when you watch TV. Sounds backwards,

right? While you're binge watching your favorite show, your brain is basically

on autopilot. But during sleep, it's working overtime, processing memories, solving problems,

and literally cleaning out toxic waste. Scientists discovered your brain cells actually shrink

at night to flush out harmful proteins. So that lazy couch potato session is technically less

productive than doing absolutely nothing in bed. Here's the controversial part: maybe we've

been glorifying hustle culture all wrong. Perhaps the real productivity hack

isn't another coffee or productivity app. It's just going to sleep earlier.
