in that nice regenerative dopamine experience of sleep, just before that, you're just having this huge spike crash off sleep and you're waking up with a lower dopamine level. And if you can end the day with a healthier experience, you're going to wake up with a higher regeneration of dopamine. And then you're going to think, okay, I'm ready to attack the day.

Yeah, I think that definitely starts with you finish your work. I think it's extremely important. So you finish your work, say 5, 6 p.m. The first check in I would do is make sure you have some short 60 second or so short reflection of your day that helps you to celebrate the progress that has occurred.

So the first thing, quick reflection, very simple way to do that would literally just be to look back at your tasks list or look back at your calendar and think, okay, cool, I've done this, I've done a podcast, we've done some meetings or whatever it may have been. then I think you need a period of time away from wherever you were working.

That could be walking. Yeah, if it's still light in the summer sort of months, go into nature, have a period of that. Could be to the gym.

And suddenly we can almost feel a bit of a decline. And that's when we're like, well, actually, I think I'll just stay on the phone for the evening. Or turn the TV on or something.
