Tired and Recharging

With all the talk of the work-around-the-clock schedules, I might be revealing too much with this, but: I sleep.

Approximately 7-8 hours per night.

I don’t function well without sleep, and I don’t recommend trying. It always fails for me.

Kobe Bryant once said that he only needs 4 hours of sleep per night. I always wished that I required less sleep, but it just doesn’t work.

In the article cited above, the author interprets Kobe’s low sleep requirement as a sacrifice for greatness. Wrong. We all have different sleep requirements, but most of us need about 7-9 hours per night.

Sleeping isn’t a sign of weakness, or a lack of commitment. It’s part of the work we do to be our best.

Good night.
