      Because by the time an early bird encounters a night owl, they’re already done with their productive time while the other slept. Where night owls are typically in their productive phase while early birds are relaxing but awake.

    Would rather die as a night owl. For most people, our time is owned by someone else during the day time and the night is the only time we have for ourselves. The only people who are lucky enough to be the early bird are those who are already having their basic needs being met without having to sacrifice their time to someone else.
    I used to be that Early bird, but trying to keep that pace had the same effect as a brand new tire wearing out, and I ended up becoming a night owl once I hit my 40s.

      There are just so many clashes here. I need to be able to go on dates on Saturdays (because I'm 36 and single and would prefer to be neither of those), but I know that if I fail my rhythm just once it would take me about a whole week to get it back on track (thank God I don't have to work shifts).

    Got a 16, yup. I developed my own personally perfect schedule making sure to account for overlap. I think It's basically go to sleep at 3am, wake up around 11am. Still get afternoons for shopping/socialising and I can always delay myself for a day and have a normal 'morning-day', so long as I catch up on sleep after. Means there's less people when I buy groceries and I get my productivity sooner!
    Sucks I'll probably never be able to implement it. 😂 Hopefully one day I can have a working from home job with my own hours. That's the dream. Necer having to socialise unless I want to.

    I have been a night owl all of my life, throughout school I was labeled the bad kid because I slept through majority of my classes (more often earlier in the day) but still got A’s and B’s on all of my tests. After I graduated I worked a 2nd shift job and that was pretty good, then I started college failed a couple of classes because of the early time frame (8-9am) but after moving my classes I graduated salutatorian. I’m 32 right now and I work a 3rd shift job and have for the last 2 years and I have never felt more awake when I wake up. The only notable thing was that for 6 months of this job I worked swing shifts and for that to work I had one day a week that I worked a double and then had to switch to morning for 3 of my 5 work days. The switch back to thirds for the beginning of my week was easy but it was rough to switch to firsts for 3 days a week. Eventually they moved me back to 3rds and I have been very happy with being on thirds.
    My point is, I am old. I have had societies morning routine on me and it caused a lot, and I mean A LOT, of depression. But now that I am on thirds, the biggest issue is that I don’t get to talk to my friends as much since they all work first shifts and sometimes it really does feel as though you are punished for being a night owl.

    The book "Why we sleep" covers this very topic and a whole lot of other reasons why sleep disruption is bad for everything in regards to your health.
    Even though I'm a morning lark, I wish we as a society would change to accommodate night owls as well.
    At least for office jobs, I don't see why we have to force them to start work at 09:00 rather than 10:00 or 11:00. Any potential time lost of collaboration between team members due to schedule start time differences will be made up by the night owls being more productive overall for following their own natural sleep routine.

    we absolutely need to encourage night owl on our society, imagine how productive would be the Economy if everything had a night shift, the amount of work a factory could oull out, the amount of products a store could sell both to morning birds and night owls
    max productivity could be reached for everything if most business were open at night and pretty much life was the same at night, also it would make addicts and robbers less confortable at night since People would still be everywhere at night

    However rarely, if I do find something exciting to delve into, I'll easily turn into a night owl for a few days.

I hate going to bed before 2am and have been forcing myself (with the help of my partner, who I'm sure enjoys my grumpiness every time they need to come get me) to do so because everything I need to do doesn't function on my natural pattern at all, which is more polyphasic. I want to be up at 6am, nap in the morning after the early part, then nap again at evening and be awake for most of the night.

    "society wasn't designed for night owls"
    That's the only answer you need
    I don't know what the rest of the video talks about, but from a personal perspective, as a night owl... I prefer the night for a variety of reasons, mainly because I work better in absolute silence and the night also has a colder temperature that is much more enjoyable to me and most importantly... I prefer darkness to sunlight
    People tend to have this concept of night owl that is very wrong wich is that "we are lazy people who stay up all night to play videogames" wich is veeeery veeeery far from the truth
    I sleep spproximately 6 hours a day, wich is all I need to feel full of energy, I wake up at 12 and go to sleep at 6 in the morning... And during all this time, 8 to 12 hours I use for productivity (I'm a digital artist who will be a future mangaka), the remaining 6 hours of my day are divided into breaks, needs, social interactions and well... having fun, such as watching movies or anime, and playing videogames.
    As you can see, I have a pretty ordinary routine in terms of balance between work and enjoyment... Actually, I'd even say that I work more compared to the average person, not even counting my studies in the equation...
    We night owls are perfectly functional individuals, it is not our faults that our psyche is completely destroyed, instead it is society that is designed in a way that doesn't favor us or atleast give us options
    That's why most night owls either choose individualistic carreers, such as freelance digital artist in my case... Or some would choose jobs with night time shifts, such as doctors or even the military
    So as you can see, we are not lazy, we are just individuals with different routine and preferences

    I feel like people find it a bit hard to wrap around the two main reasons one could have different chronotypes because of its oppository effects.
    Excluding the middle ground area which are already expected to switch around between the tendencies of both extremes, accomodating for Night Owls schedules are important because genetic is not a thing you can change yourself. But at the same time, your environment can influence the tendencies for a certain chronotype extreme as well, so Early Birds can be habituated into a nightly schedule and Night Owls can shift for an earlier schedule.
    The current main issue of society is the stigma and rigidity of scheduling which is biased for the Early schedules and against the Night schedules. In reality, an Early Bird can become more productive at night, say, if they are forced to get accustomed to overtime work. On the other hand, children are often unable to choose a schedule for themselves or have vastly diffeeent schedules compared to adults (like babies and infants requiring more sleep, etc.) that is not accommodated by most mandatory schooling schedule and parents.
    In case of kids, taking the average of every kid means you're never going to look after the min and max side of things.
    In case of career and employment, taking the min and max AND THEN using the whole range of time out of everyone's day isn't going to be more profitable or productive. It just makes the Night Owls drag their feets into work while the Early Birds drag them out of work, whereas the middle people drag them a little bit going in and out.
    But I guess it doesn't matter much as long as the ones that "set the work schedules" can freely arrange their own time to not die as early. That is how it usually is the higher your positions, right? Probably not. What an unhappy society, and somehow being "happier" is not "productive" to some.

    I’m definitely a night owl as I go to sleep like 4-5 AM and get up at 1 AM almost every day regardless if I’m working or not. I struggled a lot in school getting up in 6:30 AM but I adjusted my sleep schedule as much as I could but would always be tired and like half asleep the entire day, basically a zombie. After getting into university it got better as I never had classes earlier than 8:30 AM and even that was rarely. Eventually I found a work which allowed me to work fully remote from 4-12 PM and 2-3 night shifts a month. I’m kinda stuck now cause I know how hard it will be to find a better job that will allow me to keep a similar schedule. Almost never needing an alarm and always getting enough sleep is awesome. Wish it was possible to choose your work schedule in more fields of work. I think it would be better for the society as a whole and improve productivity and may also eliminate rush hours to some extent.

    during the mid-day if im not busy I will take a small nap or if i am busy Ill go to the gym then another cold shower,
    Later I stay up around 11 and take a hot shower before bed with a heated blanket with a time set to turn off an hour before I want to wake up
    Ive been at it since late middle school but Ive been doing mentally and phyically amazing I do sleep in on weekends if no plans are made. I am in my second year of college with a GPA of 3.7, And I've never missed a single thing in my life because of this!

    💡 Extra infos
    1. (Just to emphasize) Do not neglect sleep hygiene, this protocol is the gold standard in the treatment of insomnia.
    2. Poor sleep quality negatively impacts the functioning of the prefrontal cortex, essential for executive functions such as decision-making and self-control, and simultaneously increases activity in the amygdala, amplifying emotional responses. This dynamic may be one of the underlying factors in the challenges faced by Night Owls, as shown in the video.
    3. When facing insomnia or difficulties in falling asleep, avoid self-medication, as it may temporarily induce sleep but does not address the underlying causes of the problem and can compromise sleep quality. Consulting a health professional is essential for effective and safe treatment.

    Another thing that can introduce error to the data is some night owls have schedule that fits them. So it will give them higher score. Take me as an example, I'm no doubt a night owl. I feel extremely alert at night, because there are much less distractions during the night as compared to during the day. My job as a programmer requires a lot of focus and attention to the problems I'm trying to solve. Every time I'm distracted, I will need 10-20 mins to get back to where I was. Hence, by adopting the night owl schedule, I find myself being more productive.
    Sadly, some people just don't understand that and don't want to understand. They simply just want me to do it their way and hamper my productivity.

      There's plenty of honest work being done at night. In fact our society would collapse without it. So you might want to avoid using terms like "honest" when referring to daytime work. The concept of tying morality to work regardless seems quite puritanical. Though I'm sure that wasn't your intention. Anyway, I'd argue that the crimes most damaging to our society on a broader scale are actually committed during the day, because the necessary mechanics of society are most active then.
      Crimes at night are usually ones motivated by desperation or passion. The crimes of desperation are more in line with a scavenger mentality. And while we might generally look down on those kinds of people, our species owes our survival to it. Our distant mammalian ancestors had to scavenge or hunt at night to avoid the majority of predators.
      Survival reliant on earlier activity became more common as we became more capable predators ourselves. And it cemented when agriculture became the primary way we fed ourselves. While sleep behavior has changed many times in our history for many reasons, the concept of monophasic sleep is pretty modern regardless of when a person wakes. It was actually more common prior to electric lights, to have a biphasic sleep schedule.
      As hinted at above, the stigma against night n owls is much more recent I think. Having more to do with how the industrial revolution transformed our society's expectations of the working class.

    I scored a 20 on the questionnaire. I know I am a night owl and always have been. My parents gave me the nick name "Night Owl" as a baby and toddler as I was always awake after midnight. I am almost 58 now. I worked 2nd and parts of 3rd shift for the last 30 years I worked basically, now before we had children I did have a few day jobs and never had any trouble getting up in the morning unless I drank too much in my late teenage years and early 20s Even at the age of 4, 5, 6, 7, etc... my parents allowed me to stay up late and watch TV and I would fall asleep on the couch after watching whatever Godzilla movie was on back then or music show because we did not have MTV or VH1 and most of the live music shows back then were on at or after midnight. I even remember watching the very first episode of SNL in 1975. We also listened to the radio which included mystery theater as well as music & I also took walks. I almost always have had dogs so I thought nothing of taking a long walk with my dog at midnight, 1:00AM, 2:00AM, etc... I did this in my 20s, 30s, 40s & even still in my later 50s except the walks are not quite as long as they use to be hehehe.
    We do live in a 24/7 365 day world these days so I hate the stigma that can still get attached to being a night owl. My wife and I decided to work separate shifts once we had children and of course I was the option for the evening/night part of that. Before they were in school I would get my kids up and hang out with them so they would sleep in a bit in the morning with me. We are humans after all and are also very adaptable when we need to be. Once summer vacation came around for my kids we did fun things after midnight such as take an hour drive to the seacoast (Atlantic Ocean) and walk around on the beach and other things we could do. In the winter months we would go to the park we lived next to and go sledding or ice skating. I even got a friend or two to go midnight skating with me and we always had a blast. My kids are 30 & 27 now. My daughter was a night owl until 3 years ago(she is 30) she got a morning job and so does her husband so she prefers mornings now but does work from home since the COVID lock downs. My son is still a night owl and it is 2:15AM here on the east coast and he is still awake as usual & most evenings we are both awake at this time. I have read that humans use to sleep twice in a 24 hour cycle before we had electricity which sort of makes sense. Most people woke up early before or with the sun and then went to bed very early around 7:00PM - 9:00PM and then woke up around midnight for a few hours and then went back to bed to catch a few hours sleep before starting it all over again. I have also read this time after the 1st sleep was when most babies were created. I am also a guitar player so being awake late always gave me quiet time with almost know one around to practice from 11:00PM-3:00AM. I can also fall into that pattern of having two sleeps at times as well if I was up early and busy for whatever reason. I also notice many guitar players/musicians seem to be night owls. Most of the great rock, classic rock, progressive rock, heavy metal, jazz, experimental bands recorded all the great albums I grew up listening to in the evening and after midnight. Frank Zappa had a habit of writing and recording from 5-6PM - 3-5AM in his home studio and then slept after that. Most other bands/artists seem to work a similar schedule when you hear their interviews when they talk about recording their best releases.c There is a reason there are jokes about rock bands/rock stars sleeping all day and staying up all night. This is because they seem to do their best work then, plus who would ever want to go to a concert at 8:00AM? What band would ever want to put on a show at that time? It seems that idea never caught on hehehe.
    I am retired now so it allows me to just follow whatever schedule I choose and when we have plans or appointments I can easily adjust my sleep schedule to accommodate whatever we have to do. The one thing I had to do when working 2nd and 3rd shifts was to keep a regular sleeping pattern or I would feel like crap really quickly if I went several days in a row without doing this. I usually slept from 2:00AM/3:00AM - 9:00AM/10:00AM as a guideline but also could adjust that if needed. I was always way to wound up after work to go right to bed. I noticed most of the males I worked with also had this issue while many of my female co-workers seemed to be able to go right to bed within 30-60 minutes after getting home which I could never do. I can also stay awake the entire overnight hours and go to sleep around 8:00AM/9:00AM at times especially if I got carried away practicing. I have a Fender practice amp and throw on my headphones and can get lost in that at times. My wife also wakes up at 3:30AM because of her job and has for 15+ years so it can also give us some quiet time to chat and hang out as well.
    The world does not operate on a 7:00AM-3:00PM schedule the way it did when I was a kid so neither should anyone who enjoys the after midnight hours. I am lucky that I can function well if I need to wake up early and I have worked with a few guys who could not function at all before noon time. I was also never lazy & I always became a boss or supervisor at literally every job I ever had working 2nd and 3rd shift. I was always the first one in and the last one to leave. I was never lazy if I had to come in early at 10:00AM/11:00AM like a few of the guys I worked with over the years. The are plenty of folks who are just lazy regardless if they are a morning person or night owl & I have worked with plenty of both. Even when I worked day shift I was always up late usually watching Johnny Carson or Dave Letterman, Craig Ferguson or whatever or night show host was on, especially in the pre - internet days.
    I never expected to write a mini novel so I hope this does not bother too many folks. I really enjoyed this video and decided to subscribe and look forward to watching more of your videos. This topic is one I am always curious about. I do honestly think in my case I was born a night owl, like I mentioned my parents said I was always ready to rock before during and after midnight until the sun came up and seemed to naturally gravitate towards this throughout my entire life as well & honestly would not want it any other way. There is something about looking at the moon, planets & constellations after midnight that is awesome & many late nights they are my only captive audience. I use to actually write about their position in the sky in my journals as to keep track of how they do their celestial dance throughout the year as well. Thanks for this video and an excellent topic that I have always been interested in.

Even as a kid I'd be sent to bed probably around 9 and I would just lay in bed. This continued later and later as I got older with the less sleep I needed. I wish the world was a little bit more designed for at least the in between people and not the early birds, because even as a young kid I couldn't sleep which caused me todo worse in school. I'm lucky that my college has a morning block and a afternoon block, most classes starting 11am or later which is good enough for me.

Night feels like an escape and is the only time where I can just relax without any distractions or expectations.

    I'm someone who naturally wakes up early and always have fun. People made fun of me when I was a kid and teen but now in my 20s, suddenly everyone's "5 AM club this" and "productivity mornings" that. Meanwhile, I get up at times like 4 AM and 5 AM naturally (sometimes as early as 3:30 AM in June) because I love the solitude of the very early mornings. I have no desire to win the climb to the top of the corporate ladder. I just like getting up early. The night sky with all the stars, the little patch of blue on the eastern horizon growing brighter and brighter. I just love creating art, playing video games, going outside of a walk and looking up at the stars, so peaceful. I do my morning routine first. To all the night owls, you and I aren't so different. You say you like being creative at night. So do I. It's just for me, I'm naturally energized first thing in the morning. And then I make myself breakfast, watch it get light out, greet the sun like the corny dork I am, make myself the lunch I eat every day at work (homemade salad and a cup of plain yogurt, it's my lunch every day, I love it so much and I couldn't imagine eating anything else for lunch), I bring a handheld gaming system to work (usually DS or 3DS) and play that during lunch break (while eating lunch, PSA: Don't eat yogurt while you're in the middle of a boss battle, experience had to teach me that lesson). My work day is 8 AM to 4 PM. I live in a tiny rural town where everything's closed around 8 PM (8:30 at the lates) so getting up early doesn't hurt my social life any.

      @@phoenix6337 My favorite thing is taking a walk as it gets light out and observing the sunrise, and quickly looking the other direction to notice Earth's shadow (that little band of twilight on the other horizon), also I love making breakfast and looking out the window in the morning watching it get light out.

    You know it makes sense now, in the nights I'm in libraries or school buildings and I'm all amped to study thinking I'll retain it the moment I go home, only to completely crash the moment I reach home, every time! Friends also made this correlation known to me. I guess driving in the dark in a long commute really takes it out of you and rather adjusts you for sleep. I've caught the elves on the shelf of my dilemma thank you! I won't try to fight it anymore.

    I do believe 'Industriousness' became the personality trait to aspire to around the time of the Industrial Revolution.
    Prior to this it was High Quality/ Honourable and Moral/ Honest/ Reliable personality.
    (Thus the gun or sword duels when asomeones reputation was damaged).
    This information was compiled by a research Author who studied grave stones from the 1600's on . Most were in the US I believe.
    The inscriptions went from quality personality to production and achievement.
    It gives an insight into the changes into western values at least.
    I cannot remember the name of the book, but the Author was a fascinating Interviewee and would be on YT somewhere, no doubt.

    I’m a night owl in high school and I have no problem waking up for school, i know I have to and I do in in about 1~2 minutes. But on weekends, there’s no way I’m gonna wake up early, even if someone comes to wake me up. I’d just respond « nooooo I don’t want tooooo » and go back to sleep.
    That’s when you force me to wake up for a bad or stupid reason while I thought I could have slept otherwise that I feel the most irritated and sleepy.
    Also my only way to continue doing digital drawing is by doing it at night. If I did it during the day, my mother would tell me to study instead, or I’d feel guilty for « wasting » my day time. Each activity belongs to a time for me, even if it goes up to 2 am

    There are a decent amount of jobs that are nightowl friendly. I work 2nds in aviation maintenance and it works out with me. I can go to the gym after work and the gym i go to is almost empty. I can play videogames late and i can sleep in if i want to and take my time getting ready for work. 2nd shift is usually more chill even in industries outside of the aviation industry. Also less people at work.
    My only complaint is that i dont get to take advantage of sunlight as much especially the winter when the time goes back an hour.

    I used to see myself as a night owl but now I see myself more like in the middle, If I don't have anywhere to be I don't try to go to bed at a decent time and just sleep when I get tired, when I do, I just target about 7 and a half hours of sleep and if I get it, good, if I don't, no big deal. I used to have a bit of insomnia but now I generally get okay sleep half the time, good sleep the other half.
