I agree with you on everything you said, a good night's sleep is crucial if you want to function normally, however I have to correct you one one thing: I've been following Gary V for quite a long time now and he's not that inspirational-wake-up-early-to-hustle-every-goddamn-minute-of-your-life type of guy. He's the do-what-makes-you-happy-in-life kind of guy, and he even says this quite a lot, it just so happens that working is what he loves. He keeps saying that if you're genuinely happy earning $40k a year and having lots of time to spend with your family, then you should do that. Not that you MUST work and earn more by any means necessary.

Just wanted to share my .02$ on that.

I haven't been following his stuff for years now so my views might be outdated, but I remember him being super pushy on the work hard most hours of most days.

He's the do-what-makes-you-happy-in-life kind of guy

That'd be more my kind of vibe then. :)
