I find when in those situations Power Nap works decently - for awhile. Luckily I only have to do it once in awhile.

I slam something high in caffeine (ice tea, soda, energy drink) and then immediately pass out. It only works if I’m already fighting staying awake.

An hour or so later I’m up again and can complete the day.

This is my solution. I try to get a 90 minute nap whenever I can, but 30 and caffeine can help too. These two numbers are important so that you don’t wake up in a REM cycle.
