naps
By Ademusoyo

I never used to be a napper.

My parents always used to tell me that they would make sure that I stayed awake for as long as possible when I was a kid, because if I napped, I would not be able to sleep at night.

However, this year, I have developed a new love for sleeping.

I remember talking to a friend once and she said to me that "sleep is really our bodies only chance at rest. If we didn't sleep we would constantly have to be working."

Today, I woke up knowing I would need a nap later, but for some reason I refused to take one.

I told myself that going to bed early would be enough but my productivity was slowing down as the hours progressed.

At the end of my work day I finally took a nap and I woke up feeling so restored and ready to tackle my evening tasks.


After I woke up, I realized I should've just napped earlier.

My productivity during the day would've increased immensely had I just went and taken a nap.

Naps can be a form of productivity too. Just nap responsibly. 😉
