The Cost of Sleep — Why Rest is Essential for Purpose

Sleep isn’t wasted time — it’s one of the most powerful investments you can make in your health, your purpose, and the way you show up in life. In this episode of Fuller Living with Dr. Ashitey, I share my own struggle with sacrificing sleep for “extra hours” and what I learned about the hidden cost of cutting corners on rest.We’ll talk about why sleep is your foundation, how every choice carries consequences (a principle I borrowed from Brian Tracy’s Eat That Frog), and why protecting your rest is actually essential if you want to live with intention and pursue your long-term purpose.You’ll walk away with practical steps, a SMART goal you can set this week, and the encouragement to rethink how you approach rest — not as a luxury, but as a pathway to the life you’re called to live.👉 Download your free Purposeful Goal-Setting Blueprint at drashitey.com to connect your health goals with your deeper purpose and start living with more intention today.
