Part of the reason that they can't fall asleep is because especially as entrepreneurs, CEOs, executives, you're making decisions all day. Your brain is in what we call a high beta brainwave.

And when you're thinking, thinking, thinking, the natural progression in sleep is to go from beta to alpha to theta into delta.

I'm designed to keep you alive and I feel a threat just by your thought alone. So you may fall asleep out of exhaustion, but oftentimes what I hear people say is, I'll wake up at 3 o'clock in the morning and I can't get back to sleep.

Great way to say it. And for all the athletes out there, if you start tracking your workouts, if you work out in the morning, notice how strong you are after a good night's sleep versus how weak you are after a terrible night's sleep. It will drastically affect how much you can lift. I've noticed that.
