Then keep in mind it usually takes about 15-20 minutes to fully "wake up" again. During that time I usually drink some water and do something like email which doesn't require a lot of attention but does help wake me up and get my mind moving. It sounds inefficient due to the 'wakeup' time, but the boost of energy is HUGE in the hours afterwards. I'd even consider taking a couple power naps throughout the night.

There's a trick to these. Drink a cola or strong cup of coffee. Then immediately nap for no longer than 15-20 minutes. It takes that long for the caffeine to kick into your system. You'll wake up revived and refreshed. Also, make sure that your exercise is, if possible, outside in the sunshine. Much, much better than a gym treadmill for building alertness.

I've actually found that I'm much more alert if I don't go to sleep at all than if I do for a very minimal amount of time. I'd recommend doing high-intensity exercise whenever you start to get sleepy. Seems to work pretty well for me.
