I am currently reading Learn You a Haskell for Great Good and since it has nothing to do with what I'm doing at work (Node.js), it kinds of tells my brain I am now doing something different from work so you can engage the sleeping phase now. But basically I try to read books related to programming languages that I haven't the chance to play with at school and read them at night to help me sleep since reading has always helped me in that way. And I get to learn new things in the process.
The problem though is that before sleeping I am reading about stuff that have nothing to do with my job but are stimulating. For example I am very fond of investment vehicles. So reading about stocks or bonds is a bad choice for me even if it has nothing to do with work

I guess every people is different at some point. I can understand why. Thanks for sharing your point of view!
