In modern world, which rewards speed and productivity, sleep can seem like a waste of time. If we�re flooded with work or overwhelmed by a list of tasks, the first thing we sacrifice is our sleep. This has become so severe that the average person�s sleeping hours have reduced from roughly nine hours to seven.
But there are big problems with presenting sleep as the enemy of productivity. When you�re sleep deprived, not only are you slower & less creative � but also you accomplish less.
Research shows, surgeons awake for over 24 hours took up to 14 percent longer to complete tasks & made 20 percent more errors once they did.
