Tomorrow's Problem
Santosh's rule for staying sane at this pace.
How it works
- 1End every day, good or ugly, by detaching from it.
- 2Tonight's crisis belongs to tomorrow's version of you.
- 3A simple routine helps: family dinner, non-work conversation, a show before bed.
- 4Aim for six to seven hours of sleep. Sleep debt comes back to haunt you.
