I'm falling asleep at my desk!
Trying so hard to concentrate, but I can't.
Any ideas (other than pouring cold water on my head or slapping my face) to help me wake up ???
I've already had two coffees....

ZZZzzzzz....

stand up and jump twice
it activates the adrenaline below your diaphragm
if that doesnt work try eating something... like an apple it has alot of natural sugar and actually has more effect than coffee

also try looking at something that stimulates your brain more

lik...porn? haha jk-- whatever floats your boat

You have to get up and move around get your heart rate up a little, stretch your legs. Look around don't just stare at a computer screen or a sheet of paper. Think of it like when your driving a long distance and you start to zone the miles just go by and you don't remember them. You have to pull over and get out of the car to refocus. If your allowed pop your ipod in with some pumping tunes. Good luck.

Listen to music that will wake you up. Chat with someone (face to face or on the phone) for a few minutes. Drink ice cold water.

redbull. if that doesn't do it for ya, break a waterpipe in your office so there is a slow, annoying drip falling from the ceiling that keeps you up.
