There's A Nap For That!

Some of the new cell phones have lots of "apps" (applications) that can do pretty much anything you need. Their advertisements go like this: "Need to organize your contacts? There's an app for that. Need to manage your investments? There's an app for that."

In the non-technology world, we have lots of other problems that can seem to stress us out. But it's amazing how much a good night's sleep can make any problem seem far smaller (or our ability to manage it seem much greater). So...

...if it seems like nobody likes you, there's a nap for that!
...if you are getting frustrated at how difficult your job is, there's a nap for that!
...if the weather is miserable, there's a nap for that!

The main point: Getting a good night's sleep can help prevent a lot of problems. It is also a harmless response for many crises because it helps us take a moment to relax before tackling them, and this pause usually helps make a better decision.
