Agree totally.
I guess what I'm trying to say is - If you want to make a dent in the world, do it before you have kids. It aint easy afterwards (although it's not impossible)
Not only sleep, but exercise, too. If you're not working up a sweat a few times per week, you won't sleep as well and you'll be less healthy.
Try sleeping 6 or more hours per night. Spend half an hour 3 times per week exercising (it doesn't matter what: run, lift weights, swim, bike, etc). Take that time out of your side-project time. No, you won't have as much time to work on it, but that will be a good thing, you'll have to change how you work.

You are not getting enough sleep.
Without enough sleep you won't be able to stay healthy, much less change the lives of _others_ for the better.
Health first. Everything else second. It's an inescapable prerequisite for being effective at _anything_.

You don't agree, otherwise you wouldn't be abusing your body like that. This is the definition of lip service.
Or cognitive dissonance. Which many alcoholics and drug addicts do experience, if we wish to continue with his chosen analogy.
Some people choose to sacrifice in the present for a future reward. It doesn't always manifest, but what good is health to a miserable person?
