Second thing is whether you physically exercise during the day will help you sleep at night.

And this is the third most important thing that a lot of people lose track of.

You know, there's this weird phenomenon where when you go to bed, you get this burst of energy and you're like, man, I feel so much motivation.

Like tomorrow I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this.

Why does that burst of energy happen?

Why does your mind say this?

So I want y'all to think about a day where you've been super productive the whole day.

You woke up in the morning, you went to set, you filmed for 12 hours, you prep for tomorrow, you went to the gym, you had such a full day.

And then at the end of the day, do you ever get a burst of motivation tomorrow?

It's going to be different.

Tomorrow I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this and I'm going to do this.

Sometimes you get a feeling of satisfaction.

Today was great.

Tomorrow is going to be a repeat.

And then you will be able to go to sleep.

Your brain literally keeps track, has a mental calendar of what you should be doing, what you should accomplish on a daily basis.

And if you do not accomplish enough of what you are supposed to do, and you know what that is, then your mind says, oh, my God, I have fallen short.

It's not time to sleep yet.

I have so much more to do.

And then what does the mind do?
