Arianna Huffington has a new perspective on success. Want to get to the top of whatever it is you do? Sleep your way there. Literally.
She reflects on sleep deprivation and how getting enough sleep is one of the best business decisions you can make. I venture to say, it is one of the best decisions you can make for your nursing practice and patient care, as well.

This new year’s, I resolved to go to bed early, NOT watch TV but maybe read a chapter in a good book, and get a good night’s sleep. At first I thought my better thought processes were due to more reading, but let’s be honest, it’s because I now go to sleep an hour earlier than I used to. This is probably the one new year’s resolution I’ve actually stuck to (at least most nights) because it has such an impact on my productivity the next day.
