Behavioral economist Dan Ariely discusses why many people struggle to manage their sleep effectively and the probabilistic nature of sleep quality. He highlights the lack of immediate feedback and the challenges of measuring sleep quality. Ariely suggests that people often stop sleep improvement experiments too soon and emphasizes the importance of routine and consistency. He also explores how habits take time to form and why rewarding the process rather than the outcome is essential for better sleep.
