    Nahi lagta to nahi hai.
  • Scientists have previously claimed that those who sleep for eight hours every night have better cognitive performance than others, however, if you told this to inventor Thomas Edison, he would have perhaps laughed. Edison thought sleep was a waste of time and maintained a polyphasic sleep cycle.

    Polyphasic sleep cycle is a pattern of sleeping in which a person sleeps multiple times in 24 hours, especially for more than two hours.

    A very extreme form of this same cycle was followed by Leonardo Da Vinci. He slept after every four hours for just twenty minutes so that he had more time to work. Sleep is indeed a priceless commodity and the rich and famous people spent it wisely it seems.

    Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, wasn't much of a sleep lover either. Apparently he only slept for six hours.

    Former Prime Minister of United Kingdom, Winston Churchill led his country through the second world war as he slept in the house of parliament. Apparently, he had kept a bed there exclusively for his naps. Yet another British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher however barely got any sleep. Apparently during her time in office she only slept for four hours. In fact, later a gene that helps people get by with less sleep was named the Thatcher gene.

    PM Narendra Modi also claims to sleep for less than 3 hours everyday.

    so sorry, that was last time.

    Blame Mr yogi for this, he started it first.
    But one benefit of this was that it made u come out of your invisible mode. :D :P
