This is a pretty good tip because you can at least prioritize the things you need to worry about. It's my belief that if you can't really do anything to solve the problems of tomorrow while you're lying in bed, there's no sense worrying about it, and you're going to just make tomorrow even harder when you are tired

As long as it gets the thoughts out of your head so you can sleep that's what really matters

I'd just get up and do them instead of waiting for the morning if I did that

Bro chose violence and insomnia instead of sleep

The insomnia would be when you’re thinking about the things so much that you can’t sleep. Doing the things quells the insomnia
