Early to bed and
early to rise, makes one healthy, wealthy, and wise. This in fact is
a popular one of the ‘truths’ we constantly celebrate in our
life. Should it be so? I thought of probing further.
In an article in a recent issue of ‘Science’,
good sleep followed by late wake up is shown to be associated with
better academic performance. This, by a group of researchers whose
study involved secondary school students from many schools in USA,
which mentions that, ‘given that the adolescents have a preference to
stay active until late evenings, waking up late in the mornings
benefited the physical and mental health of students.
My favorite
contention, that all such ‘truths’ are false, is proven right
again. Not only that, exact opposite of each such ‘truth’ could
turn out to be the actual case. Take again a look at the current
example. Late, carefree mornings actually lead to better productivity.
