I tried and failed to be a morning person. Instead of fighting my body, I wake up later and have more productive days.
I bought into the idea that I was and would always be a failure if I couldn't master my biorhythm and become a super-productive early bird. But it just doesn't work for me and my routine.I dragged myself out of bed between 5 and 6 a.m. and tried to get my morning started with coffee from my French press.
I felt awful that it was so hard for me. I thought I really shouldn't be the CEO of a business if I couldn't get up early. I had to stop comparing myself to everyone else and their highlight reels. Most of what people share is the top line of what works for them, not necessarily what they failed at. Time, maturity, and confidence all helped me let go of wanting to get up early.
The whole point of trying to force myself to wake up early was to unlock some magical productivity level. But I couldn't actually get to that level using that tactic because it simply didn't work for me.

Rapid monitoring of cropland primary productivity and shipping activity in UkraineUkraine is an important global exporter of grain, especially to several countries with vulnerable food systems. The war in Ukraine may disrupt global food supply by limiting the planting, growth, and harvest of crops, or disrupting grain supply logistics. We apply a novel statistical modelling approach to satellite images of cropland in Ukraine for fast inference and exploration of cropping patterns and their influences in challenging environments. We also present satellite-derived cargo shipping activity as an accompaniment to these outputs to better explore the outcomes. Cropland Gross Primary Productivity in 2022 was 0.25gC/m2 lower than the 2010–2021 baseline period (p | 0.001). Similarly, cumulative annual cargo shipping activity ports in the Odesa and Mariupol regions were 45% and 62% lower in 2022 than in 2021, respectively. This suggests that cropland primary productivity has suffered during the conflict, and reliance on a few key port areas introduces vulnerability to the value chain.
