If rather than sleeping you’re working into the wee hours, you may be doing yourself more harm than good

According to the National Sleep Foundation, here’s how missing sleep impacts performance:

• Lower ability to retain and recall information.
• Difficulty learning new information.
• Less creativity.
• Less ability to handle stress.
• Increased moodiness and irritability.
• Impaired reaction time, judgment, thinking and coordination.
• Poorer physical appearance.
• Increased appetite, which can lead to weight gain.
• Poorer heart health and immune system function.
