'Take a nap' ought to be on the list.
A) Naps are awesome.
B) Putting down that mental model of functions, open files, and unsolved problems for a while often results in sharper thinking.
Not gonna lie though - most of my unwinding consists of refreshing HN, daytrading Bitcoin or making another cup of coffee. But ideally I'm napping.
- nxc18 8y agoI can't sleep (unless I'm extremely deprived, at which point I'm really just passing out) until after I've done the unwind things mentioned in the article and have been away from work for ~3 hours. It doesn't matter when I stop working, I cannot sleep until 3 hours has passed. I've tried, I lay in bed for 3 hours minus commute time.
