Work vs Sleep

Posted by Jan on October 5, 2009 in Instructional |

As an Internet entrepreneur, there will come a time when work will compete with sleep. Yesterday my sleep was all screwed up due to crazy wage earning work hours. I fell asleep early Saturday night then was wide awake at 12:20 am and I ended up working on my Internet projects and writing. In no time my body thought it was morning and I was drinking coffee and then by late morning I was  ready to sleep again.

My heart is often willing to stay awake and work on Internet ventures, but the body is not. Yesterday reminded me without proper sleep, I don’t function as efficiently. Though I fight sleep to finish something, I find it takes longer to accomplish whatever I am working on because I am so tired.

Valuable lesson…take a nap. I wake up feeling a bit “off” but in no time I finish waking up feeling good. I also find myself much more efficient than if I would’ve pushed myself to work more and skip the nap. When I look at the big picture, with sleep I not only get my work done more efficiently, there are less mistakes and I have time for more tasks.

When it comes to work vs sleep, let sleep win a little more often.
