Numerous studies prove: people with a lack of sleep make more mistakes, work less efficiently, make more wrong decisions, are more prone for sickness, get less promoted than people with sufficient and healthy sleep. Especially entrepreneurs and manager who are under a lot of pressure and who often have to travel between different time zones within a few weeks or months are strongly affected by sleep disturbances and lack of sleep.
Let’s begin with the effects of lack of sleep on our health: Our immune-system is constantly weakened by a lack of release of different hormones like melatonin, leptin or prolactin and our metabolism disturbed. The saving of new experiences, assimilation of impressions as well as detoxification of the body need sufficient and restful sleep. Coronary diseases, overweight, burnout, depressions, increases susceptibility to stress, irritability, forgetfulness, quicker aging process – all of these are consequences of lack of sleep. Of course, this is not only influencing our well-being and our quality of life but also our job-performance. Tired managers often act like a drunken person, like a study of the University of Michigan proofs.
Not really perfect preconditions for making the right decisions and for ideally reacting on upcoming challenges.

Check your sleeping habits, your sleep surrounding and your sleeping underlay. Here, you can easily and quickly create effective support for your sleep as well as your career.
