Many people refer to biohacking with regard to the benefits for health and fitness, but in my opinion, the most interesting use is for productivity.

Biology governs neurology, and therefore our minds. Paying attention to our biology is one of the most powerful ways we can optimize our minds.

And today, I want to talk to you about a quick hack for optimizing your productivity using circadian biology.

Find your lowest Temperature Point While Sleeping

Basically, we can use the laws of circadian biology to determine when our most productive time of day is.

Every night, approximately 2 hours before our average wait time is our lowest temperature point of day.

Knowing when this time happens is useful for a number of things, but one of them is understanding when we will be most productive during the day.

You see, most people are most alert and ready to be productive 4 hours after this low temperature point.

And you don't need to use a thermometer to find it.
