Sometimes monotonous work can bore you, and sometimes you just don’t get enough sleep. Learn to stay alert if you don’t want to get caught dozing at your desk.

You Will Need

A bright light
Water
Light exercise
Cold weather or air conditioning
Eucalyptus chewing gum
Acupressure
Fast music

Step 1: Use light(用很亮的自然光给自己调整一下)
Expose yourself to bright light, preferably natural daylight, to remind your mind and body that you should be awake.

Step 2: Drink water（喝水，缺水也容易让人感觉疲倦）
Drink water to stay hydrated. Dehydration causes fatigue.

Caffeine can keep you awake, but large doses often come with a crash.

Step 3: Move（站起来，活动30分钟）
Get up from your desk every 30 minutes to walk, jump, or otherwise move around.

Step 4: Keep cool（将空调开低，用低温给自己提醒）
Keep cool by walking in cold weather, turning on the air conditioning, or splashing cold water on your face.

Step 5: Chew gum（嚼口香糖）
Chew eucalyptus gum. A strong smell can wake you right up.

Step 6: Use acupressure（用指压按摩法）
Massage your neck and the backs of your hands to improve circulation.

Step 7: Listen to music（听音乐）
Listen to up-tempo music. Nothing soothing or relaxing, but something that really gets you going.

Humans sleep less than other primates, like chimps and baboons, who sleep around 10 hours per day.
