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.
