The founder who built Zerodha treats sleep and movement as the infrastructure that lets him recover from setbacks faster, not as a wellness bonus. He is blunt that sleep is the most underrated part of health and pushes back on hustle culture. His concrete levers match our advice exactly: sleep by 9pm, stand up every 45 minutes, and set a movement floor. After his stroke he learned this the hard way, which makes it the most honest founder-voice case for why the body is not optional. This is the Indian founder saying it plainly.
