Give a hoot for the night owls

I shifted my schedule about 3 years prior to this pandemic mainly because much of my work involves communicating with overseas factories. I found waking between 2 and 3 a.m. was very beneficial! I'd wrap up my day by 11am and enjoy an extended lunch before my second shift. This block scheduling helps me manage domestic and foreign relations with little laps in time.. the answers come much quicker which makes for a more productive and fulfilling day. This progressive scheduling works best offset by much needed downtime. I would prefer a 4 day work week.. this helps me be a better human when I allow time for myself. My life's purpose on this planet is not to work, it's to live! I realize though it's not for everyone but that's just the point.. it's okay to be different. More companies should consider the benifits.

Thank you The Wall Street Journal for describing me perfectly! I’ve always told friends and colleagues to not call be before noon!?? Are you a Night Owl Creative like me?? https://lnkd.in/dZfWcFs

Are you an early riser or a night owl? 2020 has been the year of working remotely. With that has come a flexibility in working non traditional hours. It’s even benefitted those who perform best during the later parts of the day/evenings. How has this shift affected you? #remoteoffice #careers #flexibleschedule #covid19 https://lnkd.in/etpZGTu

Thought Work From Home (WFH) was a shift? Flexibility in WHEN you work is the real unlock, and the work trend you should be getting out ahead of as an individual contributor and a leader. When are you biologically at your best every day? This is one of the top reasons people use Rise Science - to understand their circadian, and maximize their energy during the day.
