So things like, you know, your sleep quality is going to affect how you're feeling each day. But there are things like there's Chrono types. So that's the people who are like, you know, early birds versus night people are night owls. And like, for me, I'm definitely a night owl, which is like the wolf Chrono type. And so like, I know that, like when I first wake up, like, don't talk to me, leave me alone. I don't want anyone to bother me for like a solid 20 minutes, please don't talk to me, I will probably tell you that I know that like mid morning, I can get a lot of stuff done. That's really where I have like the most, like, energy. So like, that's when I'm like making plans. That's when I see my clients, like, the things that I really need my brain power for. They happen in the morning. But then I know like after lunch is usually when I'm a little bit more tired. So like, these are the things that are like, they don't require, like my full brain capacity. Like, like, when I meet with my team, it's more like admin stuff, which I don't need my full creativity for. If we're going to do a planning meeting of like, Hey, what's going on in the next like, like, quarter that's going to be in the morning because I know I have my full creativity and my brain is like, rockin and rollin. And then like after school is like, my kids are here. We're trying to get stuff done doing homework and you know, practicing piano and all that stuff. And then into bedtime. I know that I because I'm a night owl, which is not compatible with small children in elementary school. I will not sit down to do work unless I know that I'm going to be there for a while because if I'm up past 10pm That means I'm gonna be up till like one or 2am Because like I get the second wind and I am rockin and rollin I get so much stuff done between you know 11pm And 1am But that is not conducive to getting up at 530 for my kids very early elementary school. So this is a way that I have had to adapt my like the way that I work is that I can only do this like nighttime rockin and rollin amazing doo doo doo getting all done like once a week because otherwise like I'm only getting four hours of sleep and then I'm in rough shape, so I can't keep that up.
