How to pull off an all-nighter?

Some works require an all-nighter. This may be school works, research projects, or even taking care of a baby. However, it is important for people to keep in mind that all-nighters are damaging for one’s health, such as weakening of the immune system, increase in cortisol, and decrease in the ability of cognitive and motor functions. In any case, here are some tips in successfully pulling off an all-nighter, but please use these tips with caution. Gather all your materials so that you don’t need to go looking for anything later. Don’t give yourself any excuses to get off task during the night. If possible, take a brief nap sometime during the afternoon or early evening. Even 20 minutes may help you. Ideally, you want 2-3 hours. I have had good success catching a nap after drinking one of the sleep-promoting drinks containing valerian or melatonin. If those supplements work for you, fine. If they don’t work or you haven’t tried them, avoid them. No matter what, try to go into the evening as well-rested as possible.
