Time of Day vs. Productivity on Zephyr
Maybe I’m just a nerd (or obsessed with Indexed and infographics), but I’m having a pretty good time kicking the tires on OmniGraphSketcher. It’s exciting because there isn’t really intuitive software for charting and graphing yet and this looks like it could fit that role perfectly.
Anyways, this oversimplified* graph illustrates the idea that going to bed early and working during the day is pretty much always a good idea. A good example of overworking and not getting much done is when we stay until 10:30pm to work on Zephyr and realize that for the past two-and-a-half hours we’ve all been staring at our screens, drooling, and not-working**.
The dark blue area represents a typical Zephyr work day (2-10), and the light blue area represents today (8 - 10).
*I would probably shift the entire curve to the left, because I think my peak productive time is mid-morning.
**What is the difference or where is the line between doing nothing and incubating?
