Absolutely no.

Sleep deprivation is the worst thing you can do to increase productivity, long-term.

Actually, let me give this single, most important piece of advice: try to sleep 8 hours a day.

Dude I sleep at least 7.5 hours a night. I just go to bed early: see the last sentence in my post. (Edit: just checked AutoSleep. Average is 7h:58m. Edit edit: And that’s 90% weeknight sleep as I don’t usually wear the watch on the weekend. So my actual weekly average must be closer to 9h.)

Think about it this way: instead of getting up at 7am and going to bed at 11pm – a perfectly socially acceptable schedule – I shift it forward 2 hours.

It really isn’t that radical of an idea.
