Which do you prefer? • This is actually an interesting question for me, because I’ve, I’ve done both, and I’ve enjoyed both at different times. As I have gotten a little bit older, however, I believe that getting up in the morning and getting the work done, and having your nights to relax, and enjoy yourself, for me, is the better model. But when I was younger, I was a night owl.
I would sleep until noon sometimes, and then pursue whatever it was that I was doing, whether I was a student, or later on in my career, I’ve always...either taught for a living or been self-employed. So I had that flexibility. But now, as I’ve gotten older, it seems that I do prefer getting up at 6 or 7 o’clock in the morning, and having a full day, as opposed to living a more youthful lifestyle. I think this is a very age-relevant question.

Oh, I’m definitely somebody who gets up in the morning. I’d beat my alarm clock up every day at 2:15 so that I can be at work by 3:30. I touch people’s lives. I affect people’s lives. And I think that more people would start their day earlier if they realize that what they do in life involves another human being
; that you are a messenger – you take it from this person, through you, to that person. And when you see the entire circle coming together as one, you start giving value to everyday life. If you’re gonna sleep in, you’re missing out on a lot of fun things. That could affect other human beings.

Which do you prefer? • Well, for me, I work early in the morning, and late at night. Depends on the job. I have two jobs – and you know what? I like both of those things for different reasons. When I work late at night, there’s a...excitement or atmosphere that I really like. But at the same time, I’d be honest with you, I’m playing a guitar in a bar. I’m hanging out with people who I don’t get to see except in that circumstance.
So I really enjoy that. One thing that’s killer about working late, though, is having to get up the next day. That being said, the early in the morning thing – I like as well. I work early in the morning doing this kind of thing: talking on a microphone and answering questions and reading scripts and that kind of stuff...
in the morning, and there’s a quietness, there’s a stillness...and I really enjoy the peace of early morning work, because I do this work alone, and I can sit and have a cup of coffee and relax, and just kind of ease into the day. There’s something really enjoyable about that, too. So those are the reasons why I like both. I like working late at night, and I like working early in the day. Sometimes I prefer not to do either, but I like them both.

Which do you prefer? • Boy, for years, I had to get up at 5:30 every morning to be to work by 7, and it just – by the time Friday come around, that alarm went off at 5:30 in the morning, you were really tired. And now, I have a job where I can get up later in the day, so I definitely, definitely prefer being able to stay up later at night and get up later in the day and start work.

Which do you prefer? • Generally, I like to get up early and get started. Nothing’s better than getting a big, delicious cup of coffee and getting out in the sunlight or just out in the daylight and getting a move on. I hate wasting time and I hate wasting the daytime, especially. But if I have a really, really difficult project, or maybe a paper to write, or something that I have to do all by myself, I think I like working at night a lot better
It’s quiet, the house is still, and I can really concentrate all by myself. And then I may work until 3, 4, or maybe even 5 in the morning. And then of course, I’d sleep a lot later in the morning. So I guess it depends on what kind of a project I’m doing. For the most part, though, I think I like to get up early.

Which do you prefer? • Some people prefer to get up early in the morning and start the day’s work. Others prefer to get up later in the day and work until late at night. Which do you prefer? Personally, I prefer to work later in the day just because that’s where I get my most creativity from and that’s where I have the most time.
I’d rather sleep in a little bit later, mainly because I do stay up later at night to get these things done, plus, with the things that I need to accomplish, I have to do later at night, like voice acting, you know, when there’s really no one here at night, so I do that in the evening. That’s just who I am.

Which do you prefer? • I am more of a ‘get up early, start the work early and get it over with’...I would rather have free time in the afternoon, in the evening, to spend with my family and to do things that I enjoy, and hobbies, and so forth. I’m not a morning person per se, but I would rather get up and get the day started; in that way, I can get to the more enjoyable things later on in the day and enjoy the evening.

Which do you prefer? • I prefer to get up early in the morning and start the day’s work versus waiting to start later in the day. I feel it is more natural and consistent with each day itself. The day starts at sunrise, and therefore, this is when I like to start my daily activities. I get more done in the morning and I’m not that much of an afternoon person so I’m not very productive or not as productive in the afternoon.
So I like it when the morning in effect is longer because I’ve started earlier. I can get more done and I’m more effective and efficient and energetic, and because of that, I feel better about myself. So, getting started later in the day leaves me feeling behind and lethargic and I worry too much about the hours I missed that I could have put to constructive use so that by the time I get started, say if I got started at 9 or 10 o’clock, versus 6 or 7 o’clock, I just feel very behind and I’m in catch-up mode and I feel less productive and I feel like I’ve wasted more time. So it’s much more efficient and effective for me to get up and get going very early.

Which do you prefer? • I am definitely a morning person. I like to get up early, workout in the morning, start my day early, and then I usually go to bed pretty early. In college, I think everyone tends to be a night owl because you’re up late doing work and you sleep in, that’s just your body’s need, but after college I’ve definitely turned into a morning person. I don’t mind getting up early in the morning and I really think that that’s what I’m all about.
