Time and Attention

127: Rising Early

On this episode, we chat about whether or not you should wake up early—and how our biology and daily constraints dictate when we should rise. Topics covered include:

  • Calculating your natural wakeup time;
  • How our wakeup time drifts;
  • The “sepia toned” idea we have to wake up early;
  • Carving out time in the morning to be deliberate;
  • How biology affects our wakeup time;
  • How the constraints of our day affect wakeup time;
  • Having an anchor in your morning routine;
  • Whether waking up early makes a difference in our daily productivity.

    • Links mentioned in this episode:

    • Russell Foster’s great TED Talk, Why Do We Sleep?
    • Nick Lewis’s video, You’re Organizing Your House Wrong!
