Book excerpt: Professional hockey player Mike Greenza was a first-round draft pick out of Cornell University, full of youth, talent, and unlimited potential. Midway through his second NHL season, that potential is still unrealized. He and his team struggle, scraping the bottom of their division. A chance comment by Greenza’s little sister, Britt, changes everything. Reacting to her brother’s moodiness and fatigue, she reminds him of former professor Dr. Jim Maas, who had been an advisor to his Cornell team and a nationally renowned sleep coach. Told as a fable and filled with performance-enhancing scientific facts for athletes of every level in all sports, Sleep to Win follows Greenza as the season unfolds. He reconnects with Maas, author and world renowned sleep researcher, who schools him in the latest sleep research as it applies to athletes, including • the exact amount of sleep athletes need; • how a specific sleep stage actually enhances what is practiced; • a way to heal (and prevent) injury with extra rest; and • the elements of the perfect pre-game nap. Soon, Mike is skating better and scoring more, his teammates are jumping on the sleep-to-win bandwagon, his coach is becoming a believer, and the entire team is climbing out of the cellar and into the Stanley Cup playoffs—a testament to the power of sleep.

Book excerpt: Hickory dickory dock. The mouse ran up the clock. The clock struck eleven, and this was the moment the university freshman stressed out about uploading his project in time when he still had another three hours of work to do--Hickory dickory dock. It's easy to feel there's no rhyme or reason to what we do anymore in college. Our undergraduate schedules--inundated with an unmanageable quantity of fluff and should-dos--impel us to look down from the grandfather clock of a mid-semester crisis and wonder, "My goodness, what am I even doing here?" Lack of time-management skills in college is a problem. But more importantly, there is a solution; 130 of them, in fact. For this undertaking that doubled as his senior project, the author interviewed eight college success experts across the United States and compiled their answers into easy-to-apply tips to schedule your college life. Study, Sleep, Repeat divides college time management into five sections: college routine, classes, homework, jobs, and leisure time, each with suggestions to make these areas more meaningful in an undergraduate career without burning you out. Time crises foil the good-natured plans of education, but despondency doesn't have to be permanent. With a break here, a breath there, and a hickory dickory dock of preparation, you can make it. If you feel like a mindless mouse exhausted by racing against the clock for no apparent reason, this book is for you.
