Stop biohacking. The real sleep fix is simpler.
Everyone here suggests melatonin, Huberman podcasts, or avoiding screens. Let’s be honest.
The only thing that actually fixed my sleep and energy was deleting Slack from my phone and stopping the late-night hustle BS.
I just stopped giving a f**k about my company's "urgent" 11 PM pings. If a release gets delayed, let it. I’m not sacrificing my mental peace for a 5-8% appraisal.
Stop trying to supplement your way out of corporate slavery. Just log off at 6.
I stopped giving a f* years ago. The low hike isn't worth it and even if it's decent hike, it will be eaten up by tax
I realized that if you work late into the nights or on weekends, then your Managers appreciate you initially, If you keep doing this consistently, it becomes an expectation and then they start expecting you to remain online late into the night and work on weekends. Once you reach that stage, you no longer get rewarded. Bottomline: don't work beyond office hours, it doesn't help in the long term.
