Here's a few things if you're seriously considering a polyphasic sleep schedule:
Consistent sleep routine is mandatory. MANDATORY. You have to be asleep when it's time to sleep, regardless of circumstances. You must learn how to deal with anything that keeps you up. You're not getting as much sleep in one go so anytime you miss a nap, you'll be miserable.
You gotta be able to fall back asleep quickly if something wakes you up.
If your poly-sleep means getting less than 7-9 hours of sleep per 24 hours, keeping on schedule is ABSOLUTELY VITAL. I cannot stress this enough.
Miss enough sleep and your body will go into panic mode, preventing you from sleeping at all.; it'll assume you're in life-threatening danger and keep you awake for days straight. I speak from experience and it blows. It's insomnia but worse cause drugs don't touch it (tried melatonin, sleep CBD, edibles, and Trazodone. Not all at once.)
Learn what your circadian rhythm is; it can help with planning nap times.
This will affect your social life, especially if you love going out with friends. Anything that'll prevent you from sleeping on time is a no-go.
Good chance you'll be relying on some kind of caffeine. Don't forget to take that into account when planning your sleep.
Not everyone will adjust to your new schedule. Sure friends and family can, but businesses won't adjust their hours. Deliveries, shopping, meetings, etc. are factors to remember.
3rd shift tips are useful too

after I finished giving out candy last night I took a lil 2-3 hour nap
which was evidently a mistake because now it's 10 am and I'm still wide awake
