Sleep is one of the biggest game changers or Achilles heel factors, for a lack of a better way to put it, when going about one’s life. You could say that the majority of the body and mind and half of everything in society itself can trace itself at least indirectly to adequate sleep, and many have said the reputation of the job market (if not already due to its dependence on everyone having transportation) due to its connection to disasters such as Chernobyl, the Exxon oil spill, and the challenger explosion is threatened by the opposite. The old wisdom to “remember the human” (which in any case a normal job routine by its inflexible nature doesn’t do) comes to mind here, especially considering how basic sleep is supposed to be compared to the potentially tens of thousands of little quirks in our strengths and weaknesses that many of us are said to have which are like nails in the road to ignore in the workplace.

This all makes me want to ask, what are your hours? Are you a morning lark or a night owl? And what is your sleep ritual/routine?
