By so doing, you’ll regain yourself back and be able to concentrate once again.

Have a Chat

At times staying so glued to your laptop or desktop all day can be tiring.


When feeling sleepy, try having a chat with one or more of your colleagues.

It doesn’t have to be work related; just a discussion to put your mind off work for a while.

Engage in small talk from time to time.

Consider The After Effect

For some people sleeping outside their place of comfort is no sleep at all while to some others, they can sleep anywhere.

At times when you’re not comfortable sleeping in a particular posture, you might actually feel more tired afterwards.

So next time you feel sleepy, think about this.

Listen to Some Music

Music can be soothing as well as relaxing.

When feeling sleepy, try listening to some fast beat music or songs: you can even sing along.

This will help drive sleep away.

Play Some Games

You can take a few minutes to have some fun by playing online games.

A little bit of distraction is what you need sometimes.

Take a Snack

Keeping your mouth busy by nibbling on something sometimes helps.

Get a snack, biscuits, chewing gum etc.

This should help make you feel less sleepy.

Take a Little Nap

Sometimes it’s hard to fight off that sleep no matter how hard you try; you find your eyelids keep closing.

At this point, if you can try taking the little nap which is better than no nap alone.

Remember that you cannot fight nature. Sleeping a little will sure make you feel better.
