Chinese entrepreneur sleep index white paper released under the nightlife data

"If you want to buy a bed, don't buy a house; you can buy clothes or buy a bed." At the China Entrepreneur Health Forum held in Beijing on March 18, 2015 and the "2015 Forbes China Entrepreneur Sleep Index White Paper" conference, SOHO China Chairman Pan Shiyi talked about his "shopping experience" with a half-tune and a half-hearted tone. Although it is a joke, for Chinese entrepreneurs, the simple thing of "sleeping" seems to have become "a pain that cannot be said."

Entrepreneur's "night" life

As the backbone of China's economic development, entrepreneurs are shouldering the heavy responsibility of creating social wealth, and are the absolute leader of domestic development, reform and innovation, and they are also at high risk of healthy sleep.

According to the "White Paper on Chinese Entrepreneur Sleep Index" jointly published by Forbes Chinese and Mousse Bedding, the average sleep time of Chinese entrepreneurs is 6 hours and 57 minutes. Although the length of sleep is generally not short, the quality of sleep is average. The Chinese entrepreneurs interviewed are more or less suffering from different levels of sleep problems, and most people face more than one problem: more than half of the respondents said that they often wake up in the middle of the night or have more dreams; 36.6% of entrepreneurs “slow sleep, lack of deep sleep”; at the same time, more than 70% of respondents said that there are different levels of insomnia.

The difference in sleep duration between entrepreneurs of all ages is not great: entrepreneurs over 60 years old have the shortest sleep and poor sleep quality; entrepreneurs aged 40-49 often sleep more and are more practical (average sleep time is 7 hours 03) Minutes, the sleep quality score is 64.31 points), and their sleep quality is sufficient. The average sleep duration is followed by Chinese entrepreneurs aged 30-39 and 20-29. The duration is close to 7 hours and the sleep quality score is around 60. It can be seen that Chinese entrepreneurs have no special sleep age. Big gap.

In addition, Chinese female entrepreneurs sleep significantly longer (7 hours and 06 minutes) than male entrepreneurs (6 hours and 48 minutes), which is consistent with scientific research on the different needs of men and women of the same age for sleep time, and also shows that female entrepreneurs are more Pay attention to sleep and be willing to spend more time in sleep. In terms of sleep quality surveys, male entrepreneurs lead with a slight advantage. This aspect suggests that female entrepreneurs are more susceptible to poor sleep despite sleeping longer, and on the other hand do not rule out the more demanding “sleep quality” of female entrepreneurs.

Hard to reach "deep sleep"

A series of data is constantly reminding us that despite the heroic and refreshing spirit, the quality of sleep for entrepreneurs has begun to shine, and the “night” life that lacks deep sleep is far more harmful than ours. Imagine much bigger.

According to the survey data, when sleep is insufficient, 41.2% of entrepreneurs said that there will be a decline in judgment, and 31.7% of entrepreneurs said that they will influence decision-making power, and these two points are precisely the characteristics that entrepreneurs need most.

The direct effect of lack of sleep is physical discomfort. Up to 82.9% of respondents believe that short-term sleep deprivation can be a health problem. Among them, 60.5% of people think that the most important influence is that it is difficult to concentrate, and it is easy to make mistakes in work and life. 36.0% of people will feel headache if they have insufficient sleep, and some entrepreneurs will feel poor skin, stomach upset, fatigue and depression after sleep deprivation. It is worth noting that bad symptoms tend to be complicated when short-term sleep is insufficient. In the survey, about one-third of the respondents said that the body is not only uncomfortable in one place, but the proportion of people with three or more discomforts in the body is nearly 10%.

The long-term lack of sleep is far more harmful than short-term sleep. 93% of entrepreneurs surveyed said that long-term lack of sleep will have a deeper impact on health, especially for the brain, the first memory is memory loss, nearly 70% of people Think this is the most serious damage to the body caused by long-term lack of sleep. In addition, the slow pace of thinking caused by lack of sleep, endocrine disorders are also a concern of Chinese entrepreneurs. More serious, it will lead to mental weakness and depression, the proportion of this number has exceeded 17%. Another 3.4% said that the most serious consequence of long-term sleep deprivation is that old diseases will recur.

An Asia Spectrum Sleep Center expert, the founder of the Australian Sleep Center, said that lack of sleep can lead to inattention, low work efficiency, affecting judgment, and increasing the risk of high blood pressure and stroke. The body causes great damage.

Mindset + technology to improve sleep quality

With the improvement of living standards, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to their own sleep problems. Forbes Chinese editor-in-chief Zhou Jiangong said that since Forbes and Mousse started cooperating with entrepreneurs' sleep health survey, many friends around them have asked for data, how to improve their sleep, and become a question he is often asked. .

For those who have improved sleep and have deep sleep, every guest on the scene has their own tips. Yang Jincong, the founder of Fengchao Music, said that he had experienced a very serious period of insomnia, and through the constant meditation and pressure of music, he finally achieved such a good quality of sleep.

Mr. Pan Shiyi, Chairman of SOHO China, achieved the best sleep state through scientific movement. After two and a half years ago, he found that he had a big problem with his sleep. He constantly adjusted himself through exercise, diet, etc. In addition to scientific exercise, Pan Shiyi also said that good bedding and music can also help you. The deep sleep state is reached in the shortest time.

In the view of Xia Hua, the chairman of Yiwen Group, it is not important to have a big house, but having a good mattress can greatly help to improve sleep.

Yao Jiqing, president of Mouss Bedding, believes that how to truly have deep sleep is not only a solution to one aspect, but also a "six roots" of the human body. Therefore, only by creating a scientific and good sleeping environment can you really have a good life. The quality of sleep; while the sleeping environment includes physical products such as mattresses and pillows, as well as psychological relaxation such as music; this is also the direction in which Muse's bedding has been constantly working.

At the end of the forum, Pan Shiyi launched a health challenge to Yang Jincong and Yao Jiqing to raise funds for poor mountain children. The three men used their push-ups, in-situ rotation and Taijiquan to express their own health concepts and advocated positive and correct sleep concepts. Yao Jiqing also donated 500,000 to Pan Shiyi’s 50 push-ups and invited Pan Shixia. When I donated money, I went to the poverty mountain area together. .
