Here's a strategic thing I figured out:
When I wake up really early, I get a lot more work done because the morning hours have no distractions and I feel like I'm ahead of the day, like I'm using 100% of the possible day.
Therefore I wake up really early now - 3-5am.
Depending on your environment, the late night hours could also serve the same purpose.
I find it easy to keep working when it's late. Eventually I realize that I've become slow and tired, and I would have been better off had I gone to sleep hours ago, and resuming work after the rest. I realize that by "late night hours" you didn't necessarily mean staying awake when tired.
I also think the immediate post-waking hour is potentially valuable, in that I feel different during that time, so might work different (in a good way? I don't know). Maybe I just feel different because of what I'm typically doing, and if I sat down and worked, my state would quickly normalize.
