There's all of those things. But this episode is not going to be about any of those. Being tired all of the time is is not just about getting enough sleep. You can sleep for eight hours, you can eat healthy, you can drink all the water, and you can still feel completely drained by noon every single day. Why?

Because when you look at exhaustion, it runs deeper than just your bedtime routine, what time you wake up, what you're eating. All of those are important, don't get me wrong, for energy. But it goes much deeper than that. And that's what we're gonna dive into today. We're gonna dive deeper than just sleep and nutrition and caffeine.

And I'm gonna go over four reasons why you are always tired, okay? The first one, mental fatigue. Mental fatigue is the silent energy killer throughout your entire day. Have you ever noticed that sometimes you can have great sleep? You can feel good. You can be, you know, feel like I just got a whole bunch of sleep. Everything's good. Nothing's wrong. I didn't wake up.

The children didn't wake me up. I had all of the great nutrition, I had my coffee, and then just no matter what, still you just don't feel it physically. Like you ever feel completely wiped out even though everything else seems completely perfect? Have you ever felt that maybe it might be mental fatigue? So exhaustion comes from many different forms, but it can also come from decision overload.

Having to constantly be thinking and prepping for what's next. Constant problem solving. All of this information being bombarded by it every single day, all day long. And if you're not 100% sure that mental fatigue is possible, professional chess players can burn around 6,000 calories a day. And all they do... is sit in their chair.

158.749 - 176.112 Rob Dial

And the reason why is because they're sitting there and they're mentally moving all of the chess pieces and thinking 10 steps ahead. They can burn 6,000 calories a day just by thinking. That's three times more than the average person usually eats in a day. The reason why you want to think of it as kind of like to make it easy is think about your cell phone, right?

176.593 - 197.771 Rob Dial

You wake up in the morning, you had it plugged in all night, and you're at 100%. Your brain is the exact same way as that battery in your phone. Every thought that you have, every decision that you have to make, every distraction that pulls you away from what you were just doing, all of the multitasking that you're doing, all of that pulls away from your energy reserves.
