So, to get the inside word on how to achieve that perfect night of Z's we asked some of the most productive & creative people we know how they achieve optimal slumber...

"I generally find it hard to sleep as my mind never stops running. So it's a little ironic that my best formula for an acceptable nights sleep is... running.
