Well, I understand why.

Because you have so many things.

That's called interference.

Interference is a normal thing.

So when should you be worried?

Well, when it starts to affect your normal ability to work, absolutely.

Go see your neurologist.

That is the best thing to do.

Sure, absolutely.

Lack of sleep, the experiments that have done on pulling all-nighters, it is the difference between

The students that had eight hours of sleep learned things to a level of an A. The students that had pulled an all-nighter had the equivalent of an F. Wow.

There are many critical physiological processes going on during sleep that help your brain reset.

And what it does is it doesn't go to sleep like your computer.

There are cycles that your brain goes through.

But going through them multiple times between seven and eight hours is the average, really does...

Many things for your brain.

Number one, it helps strengthen or consolidate those memories.

You don't have that.

And whatever you learned the previous day is not going to be strengthened as it would be.

And your brain isn't prepped to be able to take in new things.
