Hey,
Anyone here ever long-term changed from being a night owl to a consistent early bird? I'm very much of the natural disposition to staying up till 2/3am working and generally am way more productive at night than I ever could be at 7am and then waking up at very socially unacceptable times! Been like this since I was a teen. It seems like there's plenty of research suggesting we genetically fall in two groups here. Usually when I wake up for work I will look pretty rough till 10am and a few coffees
I'd like to try changing to 5/6am, mainly for morning exercise as I do lack energy for late night exercise somehow - but also as a challenge just so see if I can! For those that have made a long term change, any regrets? how long does it take for a routine to built to the point you actually feel 'chirpy' first thing if ever? And I imagine it's super easy to break your body clock routine with even a single weekend lie in?
Is going cold turkey the best way and just ensure you're consistently in bed for 10pm? Or is it a pointless quest and should night mode just be embraced for life
Thanks!
