I think this is very much a double-edged sword, and no one is truly a night owl. > If you are a night owl can you unlock your full potential when the sun is up or does your brain only start to fully function when it's dark outside? I have an interesting personal story to share about this. I'm fully remote, and my main interfaces are in vastly different timezones (PST/EST). I'm in Singapore (UTC+8), so I'm always 12-15 hours ahead of most of my team. Which means that: - Most of my meetings/syncs etc. are in PST (early morning for them, late night for me; sometimes 3am for me, and sometimes early morning for me, evening/night for them) - I typically follow a graveyard schedule so I'm available in their timezones - I am usually most productive during night hours - (see my username) I have been doing this for 5+ years, and yes, anecdotally - I feel like I'm "myself" when there is no sunlight. However, I've come to realize that this is unhealthy for me. I barely have any energy to run daytime errands and appointments: literally nobody in my social circle is awake after 10pm, no doctor's clinic is open in the middle of the night, I can't head out and buy a pair of shoes, etc., but at least I have my basic amenities available (10-15mins walk away from two 24/7 supermarket, 7-11's, etc.) The bit about social circle affects me the most: I've given up a lot in terms of networking opportunities and/or dinner & drinks with buddies just so I could attend meetings at 10pm, 1am, ... So as much of a night owl as I am - I feel that being a night owl is great for my brain juices to flow, with the side effect of neglecting pretty much everything else in my life. Not sure where I'm going with this; it may not make any sense, but your question just struck a chord with me :-)
