I know a lot of people who feel the same as you. That said, I can't really think until around 2 in the afternoon.

May I suggest you look into intermittent fasting?

I stopped eating from 10pm until 2 pm, and it has changed my relationship to mornings entirely. It took a couple of days to for the hunger urgency to subside, and about a week before I started feeling more energetic and focused.

Most mornings, my breakfast is a cup of black coffee now.

Why must we make everyone fit the mold of a morning person. Working better in the afternoons/evenings is not a moral failing.

This doesn't. However, I'm now effective in the mornings, >and< afternoons. I do a great deal of programming in the late evenings too, these days.
