I think the point is less about which actual hours, but more about focusing on those hours that you are productive, making those count as much as you can, and not forcing yourself to work more during those unproductive hours "just because".
- ubertaco 9y agoI think you missed the part where those other, less-productive hours in my workday are spent in meetings with others. As in, that's part of my normal workday. And yeah, it may not be productive in the way I like, but it's necessary time to effectively collaborate. This idealized notion of "when I feel like it" workdays is particularly unrealistic in a workplace where you collaborate across timezones. I work best in the morning Eastern time, and I have teammates on the US west coast. If there's any chance of working with them instead of around them, I can't just say "eh, I'm less productive after 11am Eastern, so I'm just gonna call it quits."
- s73ver_ 9y agoNo, I didn't. I'm just pointing out that the specific hours mentioned in the article are not the focus, but the idea that you should concentrate during your peak hours, whatever they are.
