Nope, I'm old and have evolved into an 11am friend. I keep hearing about how old people are out of bed at sparrow fart and get stuff done, but it's never happened to me.

It primarily depends on if you have kids and their sleeping schedule as well as your job schedule. I wake up early AF, but I don't like it. I'm a natural night owl and hate super early mornings.

I seem to prefer to stay up late, AND to wake up early. What do? I'm thinking if we slow planetary rotation by just a little bit, it would give everyone more time. Shirley, there would be no adverse consequences to the environment. 28 hour days? Who's in?

I was you for a while but now when I feel myself getting wrapped into something that I know will keep me awake [mostly projects] I had to develop the habit of putting it off until the first thing in the morning. I actually think I end up spinning my wheels much, much less when I attack big problems first thing in the morning.

Early morning projects or gaming time is the best. With a cup of coffee and silence

First, I’d like to sincerely thank you for the term “sparrow fart.”

Second, I believe the same is happening to me. I used to leap out of bed as soon as morning light hit the room. Now I’m finding unrequested motivation to complete tasks at night, and groan at the sound of my alarm.
