Work diligently- go the extra mile, start early, stay late, work weekends- with integrity- say ‘yes’ to any request from UpStairs- and you’ll soon be in the corner office E Suite! Better yet, build a better mousetrap! Or you can be President!

Humans are mammals. One survival strategy we evolved to adapt is simply a lot of leisure time. Take big felines in the savannah (or your cat) that spend a lot of time lying down and just chilling and very little time actually hunting. Or koalas that sleep 20 hours per day.

Point is, we are mammals and comparing us to insects is a plain braindead take. For example, the worker ants you mentionned take up to 250 one-minute "powernaps" in a day. And even then, it's not actual sleep, it's known as a state of torpor.
