Chronotypes decide the body's natural preference for rising from bed and sleeping hours. Every individual has a different chronotype influenced by genetic make up and circadian rhythm. There are four of them.
1. The Lion
6 AM Wake up
7 AM to 12 Noon Time for sleep focus
12 Noon to 3 PM Rest and recover
3 PM to 7 PM Lighter tasks
7 PM to 10 PM Rest, unwind
10 PM Sleep
General temperament. Consistent and disciplined, make for good leaders.
2. The Dolphin
8 AM Wake up
8 AM to 9 AM Mundane chores
9 AM to 12 Noon Tend to challenging tasks
12 Noon Nap
1230 PM to 2 PM Easy tasks
2 PM to 4 PM Rest and relax
4 PM to 7 PM High Intensity Work
7 PM to 1130 PM Easy tasks
1130 PM to 1230 AM Practise active relaxation
1230 AM Sleep

3. The Bear

My take
Understanding your chronotype can transform productivity, efficiency and well-being.
Tailpiece.
Got up at 6, the chores and was ready by a half past 9.
The maid had come for work.
A quiet Sunday.
