Time and Attention

127: Rising Early

Listen Later

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!
