Lack of sleep can quickly cascade into a long list of ill effects that build upon each other. For example...
Low will power which leads to giving into temptations that you otherwise would not.
Food cravings that lead to eating unhealthy foods and/or too much food.
Feeling tired, cranky, and uninspired which leads to interpersonal conflicts, less productivity, and less happiness.
Simply missing one or two hours of sleep on any given night can and will lead to many undesired outcomes. I rationally think that for every needed hour of sleep that I miss, it may take several hours off my overall lifespan. Missing crucial sleep also makes it much more difficult to achieve the happiness and sucess that I aspire to in life.
There is a much easier path in life, and that path involves resting the mind and body every night. So be rational and disciplined in your sleep habits. Know that getting a full night's rest, every single night, is essential to your short term and long term wellbeing. Good sleep is at the foundation of it all.
