| The correlation depends. I am quite an insomniac. By having 4 days of work instead of 5, I can spread my time better in order to work on the good sleeping days and chill on the bad ones. Example: Monday: I sleep shit, I work, I survive Tuesday: I sleep horrible again, I work, I barely survive Wednesday: if I'd have worked 5 days per week this would be the day that I would be severely underperforming. Instead, it's my free day, I catch up on sleep. Thursday: I happen to sleep well. I perform well. Friday: I slept meh, I perform well. Weekend: I sleep horrible, so I make sure that I just chill the whole day and make sure I'll catch enough sleep somehow. Monday: I'm well-rested and happen to sleep well. I perform well. Having a free day at Wednesday in particular makes sure it's very tough to become too tired, even as an insomniac like me. I worked 5 days per week before, it's not possible to perform well when I was hitting sleep issues. Going through a week where I didn't drown in sleep deprivation was a blessing. Now though, it's simply a problem that I can always fix. And yes, I've tried many things I used to be much worse. I'm improving. I've made a few comments on what I've tried (and what works for me). |
