I used to be an extreme night owl when younger, I would commonly stay up until 8am playing video games and sleep until dusk. A few years ago I got into a fitness kick, and in addition to exercising to borderline excess and losing a lot of weight, I changed to an almost equally extreme morning person: waking up at 2-3am to exercise before starting my day and going to sleep at 6-7pm.
I can't say I would recommend either extreme, it's pretty ridiculous going to bed when it's broad daylight half of the year and waking up at such an ungodly hour. But I love mornings now, and it's so nice essentially being done with basically everything you have to do by noon, an extreme version of eating your frogs early.
I feel like I've lived a whole day by the time people roll out of bed, though of course that also means I'm sleeping like a small child when people are enjoying their evenings. Definitely not conducive to a healthy family life, but as a bachelor I'm enjoying it for now.
