There is one really good point in the post: expectations.
I am naturally an owl. I prefer staying up late, I love sitting in the dark at 2 or 3am. Have no problem if I have to do some extra work and stay up to 5am.
But it sucks that if I wake up at around noon, and start working at 3pm. At 5pm, when going for lunch, and the city is full of traffic jams, I think 'damn they all are going home and I just started'. It gets harder at winter because I live in north England so I hardly get any sun light. It's harder even more, because I live with my gf in a studio and sometimes wake her up at some random time by eating or typing.
So while I naturally enjoy sitting to late, I have to get up earlier because, well, I don't live in isolation.
