Most people in the world sleep just once a day. They sleep an average of 8 hours each night – about 3000 hours each year. But even though they are awake for the other 16 hours each day, they don’t necessarily enjoy all those hours. Many people wake up tired in the morning. Many people get tired again in the afternoon. After a day of work, I often come home and am so tired that all I can do is watch TV during the evening. It’s a shame: I’d prefer to use that time learning or making something, but I’m just too tired.
Some people take a nap in the afternoon. This lets them get rid of their sleepiness, and then have the energy to work or play late into the night. This makes them happier. I tried napping, but I couldn’t sleep during the day.
How about you? Do you take a nap? Are you tired in the morning? In the afternoon? In the evening after work?
Tomorrow, I’ll explain another way to sleep, a way that will give you more energy, a way that will make you feel less tired.
