**Timing**: align your sleep schedule with your natural **chronotype** (morning person, night owl, versus typical sleep-wake schedule). Chronotype is primarily determined by genetics, and yet your preferred sleep time will vary a bit across your lifespan. You can find your natural chronotype using the [Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ)](https://click.convertkit-mail4.com/92uwo67476snhqm8qexurc0vqr333bw/reh8hoh0kgz0k0c6/aHR0cHM6Ly9xeG1kLmNvbS9jYWxjdWxhdGUvY2FsY3VsYXRvcl84MjkvbW9ybmluZ25lc3MtZXZlbmluZ25lc3MtcXVlc3Rpb25uYWlyZS1tZXE=).

De aandacht is beperkt door het verwerkingsvermogen van de hersenen. Volgens Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi is het verwerkingsvermogen van het bewuste menselijke brein 120 bits per seconde. Luisteren naar één persoon vergt ongeveer 60 bits per seconde aan verwerkingskracht, wat het lastig maakt om naar twee of meer mensen tegelijk te luisteren.

Vegans can defuse this reaction, however, if they say they are avoiding animal products for health reasons rather than ethical ones. So next time the subject comes up with a new acquaintance, try emphasizing this aspect of your diet, at least to begin with.
