John Dreibelbis, leadership professor at Seabury, always said to solve a tough problem during sleep. He instructed us to think about the tough problem right before sleep and then wake up and see if something else had occurred to us by the morning. Discover magazine states: “Clinical tests show people solve problems faster when lying down. Sitting or standing triggers norepinephrine, a stress hormone that reduces the ability to reason and pay attention to detail” (July 2005, 11). Wow – now there is even scientific backing for him! (And it works.)
