Are you a night person?
05-01-2014, 07:05 PM
Since I can remember (when I was a little kid), my peek hours have always been 8 am to 2 pm, then from 7-ish pm to whenever. I remember the nighttime as when I'd do homework, study, write book reports, etc.
From 3 pm to ~7 pm, I'm in open eyed coma mode.
When I'm away though, I'm a little better, maybe from 3 pm to 6 pm. But still "ehhh".

I used to love staying up late but these days with so much going on during the day I start getting sleepy around midnight. When I'm on holidays and free from any work commitments I love staying up

I am a night person as well. It was a bitch during school years as I hated waking up early. Much prefer getting up around 10am-12pm.

I'm both.
Night person when I'm not getting any sleep like tonight (2:54 A.M), which by the way, is due to the fact that I woke up late despite going to bed early(around 1 AM).
But my ideal time to wake up is 8:15 - 8:45 A.M. Anything earlier than that and it depresses me. I hate very early mornings and the lonely aura they carry. Reminds me of heading to school.
But I'm not a fan of getting up late either. It puts me in a very demotivated state. Staying awake late into the night like right now just doesn't seem natural and again feels lonely.
So I'm trying to my best to wake up at my ideal time on most days. I know for sure it can't be done everyday as I know the schedule on some nights will get out of hands. But the next morning, it'll be a bitch to get up again at that ideal time. But I've just got to get used to that as it's the only situation that can provide the maximum satisfaction.
The most straightforward advice would be to get up at the time I desire and then have a fixed time to go to bed everyday without fail. That would be too boring for me and I'm not in favor of anything that restricts one's freedom.

The sweetest sound in the world is the sound of not being woken up by your alarm clock.

I haven't had a daily alarm clock in years, that was a nightmare waking up to that every morning.

I also haven't an alarm clock in over 10 years now, but I still wake up about between 4:30 and 5am every morning, and I absolutely love it.

I don't start feeling my best until the night time.
Been a night owl my whole life. Shit, I was born at 2 am.
I'm trying to become a morning person. For health reasons. Going to bed before 10pm is really good for you. But it's hard for me. Oh well. Radical Evolution man.

Studies have found that about 25% of people are "night owls", 15% are "early birds" and 60% of people are just normal.
I am definitely a night owl, waking up early for my job is neverending torture. My whole energy level for the day is sapped. A previous job that allowed me to arrive later, but demanded more hours, was much better for me physically and mentally. I could leave energized and ready to hit the gym and hang out and be social. Now I leave work earlier and I am a ragged mess.

I'm a night owl at the moment, but maybe once a year I end up doing an all-nighter, collapse into bed by about 7pm the next day, wake up at 4am, and that's me for a good while. But from waking up at 4am, I drift later and later by the week until I'm back where I started. I get the feeling sometimes that my circadian rhythm is longer than 24 hours, but I may just need to improve my sleeping environment.

Yeah - I pull an all-nighter sometimes.
Funnily enough - I am doing that tonight.
I woke up at 3pm today - and am going to reset my body clock by not going to bed until about 6pm tomorrow.
Then I will wake up at about 3-4am the following morning. No better feeling than having a long sleep - and then being able to wake up at 4am.

Steve,
If it took you 2 days to break the habbit of being a night owl, Im gonna have to say you were likely never one to begin with.
I have done the go to the gym, get to bed early, get uo early routine many times. It never works to readjust me. I have also done the, get no sleep, crash early the next night strategy. It works that day but that doesnt readjust me to feeling good waking up early.

Peak productive hours: 10am-1pm
Peak creative hours:12pm-3am
I'm much more productive in the mornings, but creativity comes at night when everything is closed and quiet.
I really see no reason why people including kids should be dragged up at 6-7am, we're not peasent farmers who have to let the cows out anymore.
