There isn’t much that can’t be solved by taking a nap. All good things come to those who sleep (frequently, we might add). Got a big test coming up? Nap before you study. Can’t decide what to eat for dinner? Just sleep on it. If you’re not napping, you’re not living your best life. Regardless of how much is on your plate, every professional napper knows that the key to reaching your highest potential comes from the art of prioritizing and perfecting your short sleep habits.
1. No matter how busy you are, there is always time for a nap
Akin to “treat others as you would like to be treated,” this is your personal golden rule.
2. You’re a pro at fitting power naps into your busy lifestyle
Seven minutes until class? Don’t underestimate my sleeping capabilities. I assure you, I got this.
3. Missing a nap means the rest of the world will have to feel your cranky wrath
Friends and family better watch out. This is serious.
4. The only thing almost as great as napping is food
Enough said.
5. You not-so-secretly wish human hibernation was a thing
The envy towards bears is so real.
6. You have canceled plans on your friends in order to nap
Uh, sorry, I was busy napping?
7. You have no regrets about canceling plans because you realize it’s a necessary evil
The difference between napping or not napping determines your feelings towards people that day. Would you like me to hate you today? Yeah, didn’t think so.
8. You literally cannot stand when people say “I’ll sleep when I’m dead”
Why not just nap while you’re alive?
9. You think about napping pretty much all day long
Whether at work, during breakfast, walking down the street, napping is always the first thing on your mind.
10. You know there’s nothing better than napping during long car rides
Fifteen hours in the car? That’s fine. Don’t mind me, I’ll just be here sleeping like a baby.
11. Taking a three-hour nap at the start of the weekend is what you imagine heaven must feel like
It’s a highly spiritual experience.
12. Your ability to sleep anywhere through anything leaves some people baffled
Even if you have to curl up into a ball and sleep on the floor through a thunderstorm, you’ll do it. You’re that committed to catching your z’s.
13. Your close friends have memorized your napping schedule
If you don’t respond to the group chat, it’s a given what you’re doing. Hey, at least they don’t have to worry you’re dead in a ditch somewhere.
Not many understand or appreciate the true art of napping, but you are part of a special group of people—one that recognizes the heavenly nature of napping and its importance. Even if you never excel at anything else in your life, you are, and always will be, a professional napper.
