Problem statement

70% of adults in America report that they obtain insufficient sleep at least one night a month, and 11% report insufficient sleep every night. It is estimated that 50 to 70 million Americans of all ages and socioeconomic classes face this problem, And 20% of Americans are chronic procrastinators.
