When do you feel most productive?

View all responses

I feel most productive in the mornings, starting at about 7 AM and going until 2 PM. After breakfast and coffee, because I get up at 5 AM to capture this productive time.

I get a lot done in the morning. At work, I get lectures written and assignments graded in the morning when I get here at 7:30 AM. Today I’m getting my blog written because I didn’t write it the day before. That’s how productive I am in the morning — I almost get ahead of myself.

I’m not as productive in the afternoon, but often work to keep from getting bored. By 4:30 PM, though, I’m ready for a rest. Dinner, then vegetative time. Then bed by 8. I have a boring night life, but it works for me because it keeps me productive in the morning.

Off to go work now.

I feel most productive in the mornings. I wake up at 5 in the morning, sit in bed reading for 20 minutes, then get up for the day. Then I eat breakfast, write this blog during coffee, and by seven-thirty am ready for the workday.

My mind is at its sharpest from seven till about 2 PM. By then, I’m not what I’d call productive. I get most of my work done in the morning, and teach classes in the early afternoon. By three PM I’m ready to take a nap, although I’m not done until 5. My productivity is just not very productive in the late afternoon.

In the evening, I rest. I go to bed by eight, because I’m a morning person.
