I seem to find the Zone better when I haven't eaten all day. I wonder if the principles are the same.
This works fine for me, but I've seen counter-examples too - I've had colleagues that are absolutely braindead/grumpy/etc unless they eat.
- alexandros 18y agoTo add another anecdote, one of my most productive programming periods was when I was eating a single (small) meal per day at 6pm.
- pasbesoin 18y agoI used to actually enjoy skipping breakfast and sometimes lunch. I'm thinking at the moment particularly of college when I would be in "crunch mode". I'd get a bit hungry, but it somehow "felt" as if it lent itself to the overall push to get stuff done. I'm generally an evening person, but I could have a very enjoyable morning by jumping, sans breakfast, straight into work while things were still quiet and somehow associate my work and progress with a certain "leanness" in the gastrointestinal area. I don't know quite how to describe it, but it was a distinct and useful impression.
