Vanblah aside, few have professed to getting a lot of things accomplished while they are up late. I agree that everyone should abide to their own natural sleep cycle as much as their job, environment, family obligations allow. But my contention was that people who self identify as 'Night Owls' use their extra time at the end of the day to unwind and relax versus a self identified 'Morning Person' who might use their extra time to accomplish things at the beginning of the day. This is my personal experience in this area, and I wonder how many other people share that experience.
To draw the comparison with crystal clarity, let's clearly define the parameters. Let's say that both the Morning Person and the Night Owl are awake and active from the hours of 9AM to 10PM. For the purposes of this exercise, let's say that both accomplish a similar level of tasks during the period of 9AM to 10PM. The Morning Person rises at 6AM, while the Night Owl remains awake until 1AM. During the 3 hours where the other party is not awake, it is my hypothesis that the Morning Person is more likely to be productive than the Night Owl.
Agree or disagree?
