The past few years I've been the guy who's up at 5am and in the gym, at my desk at 7:30, and have a set routine for how I start my day. I feel like in the past, getting an early start was how to be successful when it comes to prospecting or getting in front of clients.
Lately I've been noticing a shift though. A lot of people are starting their days later and later and then working later into the evening instead of early in the morning. My best success window with prospecting is around 2-4pm now. And clients regularly text/call/email back after 5pm. But before 10am are basically non existent.
Likewise, I have a lot of coworkers who don't start their day until 9 or 10am.
So what does the community here think? Does the early bird still get the worm? Or has the work culture progressed past the point of being up before the sun to start grinding right away. I'm looking forward to hearing some opinions.
