re: Why 4 a.m. is the most productive hour

Because we smart people need these idiots to be productive by making things with their hands while we come up with all the ideas by staying up late and sleeping in: Night Owls on average more intelligent.

I'm most productive from 8pm til midnight. If I have to wake up early, I'm a zombie.

Pretty much all my life changing ideas come at 2 AM when I can't sleep.

I couldn't imagine going to bed at 1 and waking up at 6 or 7 everyday. I wonder if these people nap though.

Even though he knows productivity experts say doing email first thing in the morning expends prime mental energy on busywork, Mr. Perry says clearing his inbox curbs his anxiety. “I feel I get a head start on everybody,” he says.

As someone who works internationally, it get maddening anxiety when I wakeup to 10-15 emails in my inbox. It freaks me out, and I can't not answer them immediately. I get lulls from time to them depending on clients and projects, but right now my two biggest clients are in Tokyo and London, and it's miserable.

I get up at 4:30, answer all emails until I have a clean inbox, and then go workout. It's the only way to start my day. I worked in Los Angeles for a week a couple months ago, and waking to have emails from Tokyo, London and all the US was panic-inducing .
