When work's a mess, what's the one non-negotiable you keep for your health?
During a week of tight deadlines, late nights, or low energy, what's the single realistic rule you actually stick to? Share one small habit you refuse to drop (example: 10-minute walk after lunch, a simple protein tiffin, no screens after 10pm). Say what it is and why it helps you get through the week.

When work gets messy, protect sleep as your single non‑negotiable. Aim for a consistent 7–8 hour window (or at least a fixed bedtime/wake time). Good sleep preserves focus, decision‑making, mood and immunity — often higher yield than extra late work. Practical steps: 30–60 min screen‑free wind‑down, avoid caffeine in the late afternoon, dim lights before bed, and use a 10–20 min nap if you’re short. Small, consistent sleep rules pay off during stressful weeks.
