<aside> <img src="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" alt="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" width="40px" /> A chronotype is a genetically pre-determined sleep schedule

You are either a:

1. Lion (early birds)
2. Bear (somewhere in-between)
3. Wolf (night owls)
4. Dolphin (somewhat ”erratic” and unpredictable)

Steps to use this information:

1. Figure out your chronotype
2. Align your sleep-wake cycle with your body’s natural synchronicity </aside>

The Lion

<aside> <img src="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" alt="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" width="40px" /> About the Lion:

• Feels most alive in the morning with energy levels peaking before noon, and is typically able to complete massive amounts of work before lunch
• Often needing a power nap to recharge, and by the evening they feel drained
• Lions generally need around eight hours of sleep per night to sustain their high energy levels in the early morning

The (rough) ideal daily schedule for a lion looks like:

• 6–7 am: Wake up
• 8 am–12 pm: Focus on deep work
• 12–4 pm: Focus on lighter tasks
• 4–9 pm: Daily unwind and relax
• 9–10 pm: Get ready for bed
• 10 pm – 6 am: Sleep </aside>

The Bear

<aside> <img src="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" alt="/icons/light-bulb_blue.svg" width="40px" /> About the Bear:

• Follows the solar cycle
• If bear types fail to get enough sleep at night, they may feel lethargic throughout the day and go to bed earlier than normal

The (rough) ideal bear schedule looks like:

• 7–8 am: Wake up
• 10 am–2 pm: Focus on deep work
• 2–4 pm: Work on lighter tasks
• 4–10 pm: Relax and unwind
• 10–11 pm: Get ready for bed
• 11 pm–7 am: Sleep </aside>
