**Timing**: align your sleep schedule with your natural **chronotype** (morning person, night owl, versus typical sleep-wake schedule).

Why is it important to me? And what can I do with this information? By drilling that for just 30 seconds after every podcast episode, every meeting, every interaction, you train your brain to think in that way.
