But this doesn’t seem to apply to Daisuke, from Japan.
The 36-year-old, who loves art, music and reading, found he was struggling to find enough hours in the day to take part in his hobbies.
So, he found a shortcut – less sleep, as reported by What’s The Jam.
Daisuke did research and practiced sleeping for short periods at a time.
After two months, he claims he was able to shorten his sleep time to just 30 minutes a day and still function normally.
