Why I did it: Actually, I love TEDx, specially a site
for personal self growth. Sometimes these talks can
be very long and I may not have the time to listen or
that after I listen I want to print out a set of

I am hoping that this summary resource will be
useful to you and my base of 10,000+ and counting

8. Introduction
My big idea is a very, very small idea that can
unlock billions of big ideas that are at the
moment dormant inside us. And my little
idea that will do that is sleep.

9. Exhaustion…
This is a room of type-A women. This is a room of
sleep-deprived women. And I learned the hard
way,the value of sleep. Two-and-a-half years ago, I
fainted from exhaustion. I hit my head on my desk.
I broke my cheekbone, I got five stitches on my
right eye. And I began the journey of rediscovering
the value of sleep. And in the course of that, I
studied, I met with medical doctors, scientists, and
I'm here to tell you that the way to a more
productive, more inspired, more joyful life is
getting enough sleep.

10. Going to lead the way…
And we women are going to lead the way in this
new revolution, this new feminist issue. We are
literally going to sleep our way to the top, literally.
Because unfortunately for men, sleep deprivation
has become a virility symbol. I was recently having
dinner with a guy who bragged that he had only
gotten four hours sleep the night before. And I felt
like saying to him -- but I didn't say it -- I felt like
saying, "You know what? If you had gotten five, this
dinner would have been a lot more interesting."

11. Sleep deprivation …
There is now a kind of sleep deprivation one-upmanship. Especially here in Washington, if
you try to make a breakfast date, and you say, "How about eight o'clock?" they're likely to
tell you, "Eight o'clock is too late for me, but that's okay, I can get a game of tennis in and
do a few conference calls and meet you at eight." And they think that means that they are
so incredibly busy and productive, but the truth is they're not, because we, at the
moment, have had brilliant leaders in business, in finance, in politics, making terrible
decisions. So a high I.Q. does not mean that you're a good leader, because the essence of
leadership is being able to see the iceberg before it hits the Titanic. And we've had far too
many icebergs hitting our Titanics.

12. In fact…..
I have a feeling that if Lehman
Brothers was Lehman Brothers and
Sisters, they might still be around. While
all the brothers were busy just being
hyper-connected 24/7, maybe a sister
would have noticed the iceberg, because
she would have woken up from a seven-
and-a-half- or eight-hour sleep and have
been able to see the big picture.

13. So if this is true…
So as we are facing all the multiple crises in our
world at the moment, what is good for us on a
personal level, what's going to bring more joy,
gratitude, effectiveness in our lives and be the
best for our own careers is also what is best for
the world. So I urge you to shut your eyes and
discover the great ideas that lie inside us, to shut
your engines and discover the power of sleep.
