I agree with this. I struggled the same thing as GP mentioned, and worse. And from my experience it’s a vicious cycle.

I don’t necessarily agree with the specific “get up at T”, but generally working towards getting rid of bad sleeping habits (and nutrition etc.) is incredibly beneficial. Seemingly small improvements can have a positive snowball effect.

Negative circumstances (like “my job is shit”) can be overcome more easily the more energy you have.

Seems trite, but it’s trivially true. My mental state improved gradually and I gathered more courage, got more resilient and more creative.

I’m much happier, helpful and have much more impact on my life and my surroundings than ever before. And it all started with the basics.
