“I do my best stuff midmorning and superlate at night, from 1 to 5 in the morning. Some people don't need sleep. I actually do need sleep. I just sleep all the time. I'll catch naps in the afternoon, or I'll take a 20-minute snooze in the office - just all the time. Our business is 24 hours. Our guys in Europe come online at midnight.” PeopleNeedsNightGuyStuffHoursSleepMorningMinutesOfficeEuropeOnlineAfternoonMidnightNapsNeed SleepAfternoon Naps Author:Matt Mullenweg
“The brain has an attentional mode called the "mind wandering mode" that was only recently identified. This is when thoughts move seamlessly from one to another, often to unrelated thoughts, without you controlling where they go. This brain state acts as a neural reset button, allowing us to come back to our work with a refreshed perspective. Different people find they enter this mode in different ways: reading, a walk in nature, looking at art, meditating, and napping. A 15-minute nap can produce the equivalent of a 10-point boost in IQ.” PeopleWayMindArtDifferentStatesMovingReadingWalksBrainMinutesProducePerspectiveWanderDifferent WaysAllowingButtonsDifferent PeoplesWithout YouNapsMeditatingBoostResetWalks In NatureReset Button Author:Daniel Levitin
“What I recommend is this: after you've talked to everybody, go take a nap! Take a nap. Your body really needs to sleep. It's like washing your face. If you can't afford a three-hour nap, do a one-hour nap. If you can't afford a one-hour nap, do half an hour. If you can't afford half an hour, do fifteen minutes.” IfsNeedsBodyFacesThreeHoursSleepHalfMinutesYour BodyYour FaceFifteenWashingNapsOne Hour Author:Sandra Cisneros
