Five breakfasts a day?

Well this is a new blog for me. I stopped the old one when I launched my newsletter but I missed it! My newsletter (subscribe for free using the link on the right) is attracting subscribers faster than I can think and as usual I find myself working into the night.

If you haven't checked it out you can find back issues at the above website and with £100 worth of freebies in the latest issue it's worth having a look at. Plug over!

Talking about working into the night, it took me several years to work out when my 'optimum work time' was. It seems research has shown that people are very different when it comes to productivity at work. For example I work best first thing in the morning 6am onwards, then late at night 11pm onwards.

This is the time when I seem to get my most productive work done. Employers might benefit from realising that the person who is always half an hour late for work might be an afternoon person and do most of his productive work after 1pm, whereas others should start at 5am, and leave at lunchtime.

One prolific author I know works best after breakfast so to make sure he's productive all day he has two or three naps during the day, then wakes, has a snack and his body thinks it's time for work again.

Have a productive week.
