So to be honest, Mike, I haven't told you anything you don't already know.
Right.
There are people out there that are early birds makes up about 10 to 15 percent.
There are people out there that are night owls.
Again, it makes up about 10 to 15%.
And then there are people in the middle and that makes up 50%.
What are we doing with the other 15 to 20% of people out there?
Unfortunately, those are my insomniacs.
And when you look at them genetically, they actually have a kind of weird genetic sleep schedule so that it actually makes it very difficult for them to sleep.
The good news is I've done all the research in the book.
And if you do the Coronado quiz online,
i actually send you an email and tell you personally what are the different chronotypes and what's your bedtime what's your rise time things like that so living within that chrono typical time frame actually turns out to be one of the easiest things that people can do just by waking up consistently seven days a week what happens though if your chronotype doesn't match up to your work schedule
Yep, happens all the time.
Like shift workers, for example, right?
So what happens if you're a normal person or even an early bird and you gotta work from 11 at night till seven in the morning?
So number one, oftentimes I tell people, if it's humanly possible, it would be great to talk to your boss.
So what I've discovered over the course of time is when I sit and talk with people's employers, it's actually quite remarkable because they can see the difference.
They know who their employees are, who are good at night and who are good in the morning.
And oftentimes, if you talk with them intelligently, they'll start switching people's schedules around to match
their chronotype.
