    Sleep is vital, somehow it's viewed as a negative in today's society

    Matthew is an unbelievably good speaker: tone of voice, pitch, pace, choice of words, it is absolutely amazing. So much to learn from him beyond sleep.

    I read his book, and now Im literally afraid to not get enough sleep.<br><br>I am thoroughly convinced that lack of sleep is to blame for the generally crappy health that Americans and many other people around the world are suffering.

    I once was had sleep deprivation for about 3 months. Getting maybe 3 hrs good sleep a night. It destroyed my life basically. Took me months to recover. &nbsp;I believe everything Matt saying. Thanks Matt! Your work is important!

    I lived in Argentina for four years as a kid. There you have the option to go to school in the morning or in the afternoon! Amazing! I went to the afternoon school and was never happier as a kid

    I&apos;ve been working in a place for 3 years of constant sleep deprivation regularly doing 20 hr work marathons with half hour naps here and there, I&apos;ve no excuse for that, but that&apos;s the time I started loosing hair on alarming scale, I was looking like a professional alcoholic, of course I was consuming lots of bread and sugar too, but sleep improved my health considerable after quitting the job and sleeping well for several months.
