即使是一点点的睡眠不足（任何少于8小时的睡眠），也会影响到一个人整体的精神状态，使人不易保持精神的高度集中，这是影响工作效率和质量的重要因素。不允许、至少不鼓励时间太早或太晚的电话或会议。

即使保证了充足的睡眠，人类也不适于连续高强度地工作90分钟以上。我们越是不休息长时间地工作，就越容易耗尽我们的能力，让我们不能做出合理的、能够反应问题的决定。

常吃点高能量食品。每三个小时可以补充一点富含高蛋白和合成碳水化合物的食物，从而保证葡萄糖维持在正常水平，这是我们精力和能力的源泉。

不要在晚上或周末给别人发邮件，也不要指望别人会在这些时间段里给你回复。如果真的是紧急事件的话，直接打电话给对方，这样他们就不需要被迫不断地查看邮箱了。
