We both underslept, got like 4-6 hours per night, and then stole sleep whenever we had nothing important to do. Sleep 10 minutes in a taxi, 20 minutes on a subway ride, 1 hour between meetings when you&apos;re in the middle of the city... surprisingly, it actually works, and you can go into deep sleep pretty quickly whenever you want when you&apos;re constantly underslept.&lt;p&gt;Now, I don&apos;t do it these days, and don&apos;t really recommend it, but if your schedule is crazy enough, it might be the answer. I was full-time running one company, building another, and studying full time. Also was dating two girls and had a couple hobbies. So basically, I did stuff every hour I could, and slept every time I couldn&apos;t do something. It&apos;s crazy but it kind of works.&lt;p&gt;Edit: I didn&apos;t mention my biggest takeaway from the experiment. We waste a &lt;i&gt;hell of a lot&lt;/i&gt; of time, all of us. Like a ridiculous amount. 3-7 hours per day at least, between tasks, waiting in lines, in transit without reading or working on anything or sleeping, etc. A hell of a lot. I kept the habit of cutting down &quot;dead time&quot; as much as possible now that I&apos;m more aware of it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>johnnybgoode</author><text>Some aspects of the bubble lifestyle irritate me, but this was an interesting read.&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;In my home office, I have two large, 30-inch computer monitors -- a Mac and a PC. They share the same mouse and keyboard, so I can type or copy and paste between them.

A Mac with a virtualized Windows instance on one of the monitors?&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;I do my best stuff midmorning and superlate at night, from 1 to 5 in the morning. Some people don&apos;t need sleep. I actually do need sleep. I just sleep all the time. I&apos;ll catch naps in the afternoon, or I&apos;ll take a 20-minute snooze in the office -- just all the time. Our business is 24 hours. Our guys in Europe come online at midnight. Sometimes, I will go out at night, come home from the bar at 2 or 3 a.m., and then go to work.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;This has to take a toll, right?</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The Way I Work: Matt Mullenweg</title><url>http://www.inc.com/magazine/20090601/the-way-i-work-matt-mullenweg.html</url></story>
