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.

In general, getting an isolated environment is really important for certain types of work, and early or late are the simplest methods of isolation given how social humans and our environments are.
