Want to be next Jeff Bezos? Don’t ignore sleep

NEW YORK: Jeff Bezos came up with a brilliant idea that turned into a company and now a household name — Amazon. The secret ingredient for coming up with these ideas may be something we can all tap into — a good night’s sleep.

“Entrepreneurs who consistently choose hustle over sleep, thinking that sleep comes after success, may be subverting their efforts to succeed,” said study lead author Jeff Gish, Assistant Professor at the University of Central Florida.

“Everyone needs a good night’s sleep, but it is especially important for entrepreneurs,” Gish said.
