The key is not to give the best hours of your life to your employer. If that’s the first 2-3 hours after you wake up, then wake up rebelliously early and rock out before work. Way to tell is you normally find yourself coming home from work and basically collapsing and not being able to fully engage with the things you love. If that’s you, it’s worth giving the early bird thing a fair chance. Of course, if you know in your bones that that just ain’t you and life begins at 9pm, then get your groove on then and don’t worry about what the morning people are saying. In a different life the two of you would have just taken different shifts keeping watch to defend the village from wolves and stuff. Important thing is just finding what works best for you
