What defines ideal sleep? For me, it’s the following:

1. Short enough to allow me more waking hours

2. Long enough to get me rested

Defining the exact number of how short and long it needs to be has been argued about by many brilliant people. For example, Napoleon once said only lazy people slept eight hours. Einstein, on the other hand, demanded 10 hours of sleep every night for himself.

I personally need only 4 to 5 hours a night.
