Sleep Is Your Secret Weapon at Work

Sleep Is Your Secret Weapon at Work

By Mar Vincent Cordovez


A lot of people think working more and sleeping less makes you more successful. But the truth is, without good sleep, your brain just does not work right. If you want to be sharp, make smart decisions, and keep your cool under pressure, you have got to rest.


When you sleep well, you think clearer, solve problems faster, and stay focused longer. If you skip sleep, you’re more likely to make mistakes and feel drained all day. For jobs that need physical strength or attention to detail like me in the military and also in healthcare, that can be risky.


Sleep helps your body recharge so you can be your best. It is not a waste of time but a fuel your brain and body need to perform at full power. So instead of bragging about how little sleep you get, start taking pride in getting real rest. It makes you better at everything you do.

  Immigration and How ICE Enforcement Is Reshaping America in 2025 by Mar Vincent Cordovez In 2025, ICE raids under President Trump’s Project 2025 have become chaotic, leaving immigrant communities in fear and reshaping the labor economy. I am now unsure of the future of even the naturalized immigrants where their citizenship might also be stripped off. A haunting image Glass House Farms in California shows ICE agents confronting workers with military support, highlighting the militarized tone of enforcement. Protestors on the 101 Freeway in LA waved flags and clashed with police—symbolizing the raw resistance to these policies. Meanwhile, infographics from CBS News reveal nearly half of detainees lack criminal records, questioning the ethical framework of such actions. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-detentions-non-criminal-immigrants-violent-crime-convictions-analysis/ An interactive map by USA Today details over 600 law enforcement partnerships aiding raids, mostly in Florida ...

Rising costs of Education

Rising costs of Education by Mar Vincent Cordovez Lately, it feels like chasing a degree is like chasing the wind. The cost of education keeps rising faster than any paycheck or burst of ambition and the resources to help students keep being less funded. Sometimes, walking into the education center feels more like bracing for disappointment than finding support. I have seen the stress on my friends' faces, watched them pause their dreams, take fewer courses, or pile on loans just to stay in the game. And honestly? That hits hard. That’s why I count my blessings being in the Air Force. Tuition Assistance is not just a benefit it is a lifeline. It allows me to stay enrolled, push toward my academic and career goals, and only worry about the small stuff like proctoring fees or textbooks. I am not drowning in debt. I am not choosing between groceries and tuition. That support makes all the difference, not just financially but mentally. It tells me I am worth investing in. That my growt...

A Strong Grip Might Mean a Long Life

A Strong Grip Might Mean a Long Life By Mar Vincent Cordovez I just read an article that opened my eyes to something simple but powerful which is grip strength. It turns out how firmly you can hold something might say a lot about your overall health and how long you will live. Experts found that people with weaker grip strength are more likely to have heart problems, memory issues, and shorter lifespans. It is wild to think that something so easy to check, like how strong your hands are, can tell us so much about how our bodies are doing. The good news is you do not need fancy gear to build grip strength. Squeezing a stress ball, doing pull-ups, or carrying bags of groceries can help. So if you have not tested your grip lately, try it out. It is a simple way to keep tabs on your health and maybe even add some extra years to your life.
