Early Birds vs. Night Owls, the answer to which of these two kinds people perform better is still in the debate. Research shows that these two types of people have different brain structures, programmed to work better at different times of the day.
If you’re either a night owl, a morning person or even in somewhere between the two, don’t feel bad because all these people perform the same at work.
I’m a night owl myself and there’s nothing more I hate than waking up in the morning. But I must admit, early risers do hold the advantage. For example, if you’re a night owl, you’ll probably be going to morning meetings feeling like a vampire, which can be a serious problem. Also, you’ll have more time to spend with your friends and family if you wake up early.
