Technique 5: Sleep Tight, Sleeping Beauty

This technique is for the sleep-deprived, the insomniacs, and the coffee-gulity. You know who you are.

It's all about embracing your inner sloth, and making the most of it. Like, literally.

Here's how to do it:

  1. Wake up, get dressed, but not too quickly. Take your time.
  2. Make a beeline for the couch, but not the bed. The couch is more forgiving.
  3. Set your alarm clock to 'never', or at least 4:47 AM.
  4. Take a 3-hour nap. No, wait, make it 4.5 hours. You can do the math.
  5. Wake up, and pretend you're refreshed. You might even convince yourself.
