If that sounds like you, don't despair. "I know people who are high energy in the afternoon, evening, and late night who are very successful in business," says Laura Stack, a time management expert and author of Super Competent: The Six Keys to Perform at Your Productive Best. "The key is to be aware of what time you're at your highest energy level, because your brain is capable of doing higher-level activities in that range compared to other times during the day."

如果你也有类似的经历，不必沮丧。时间管理专家劳拉•斯塔克说：“我认识许多人，他们都是在下午、晚上或深夜的时候最有精神，但他们的事业都非常成功。关键是要清楚自己在什么时间精神状态最佳，精力最充沛，因为，与其他时段相比，在这一时间段，大脑能够进行一些更高级的活动。”劳拉•斯塔克著有《超能力：高效工作的六大诀窍》一书。

Whenever you're at your best, that's the time to focus on critical decisions, problem-solving or brainstorming activities, or anything requiring complex or detailed thought. Whatever you do, "Resist the urge to do fun, easy, trivial things or talk to your friends during your prime times," says Stack. "The trick is self-discipline," just as with rolling out of bed at 6 a.m.

不论精力最充沛的时段出现在何时，在这个时段都应集中精力，制定关键决策，解决问题或进行头脑风暴，或其他需要复杂或细致思考的活动。无论如何，斯塔克称：“千万不要把自己的黄金时间浪费在娱乐上，或做一些简单琐碎的事情，或者与朋友闲聊。关键是要自律。”清晨6点从被窝里爬出来也是如此。
