Hypnopaedia

Sleep-learning (also known as sleep-teaching or hypnopædia) attempts to convey information to a sleeping person, typically by playing a sound recording to them while they sleep.

The art of teaching someone a lesson in their sleep so that they can remember it when asked.
For me, hypnopaedia and Music are very much alike. For example, whenever I fall asleep listening to music, the next morning when I wake up, I will have the song stuck in my head. I will be singing it aloud (non intentionally,) but when someone asks me what song it is, or what the lyrics are, I have no clue.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
