Everyone experiences tiredness at work sometimes. At some point (usually around 2: 00 pm), you find yourself ready for a nap. Your energy changes naturally throughout the day. Productivity expert Chris Bailey recorded his motivation, focus, and energy levels for 21 days and found that all three tend to spike between 7:00 and 8:00 am, 11:00 am and 12: 00 pm, and 6: 00 and 7: 00 pm. For all those highs, he also noticed time when focus, energy, and motivation were nowhere to be found.
Your peak productivity time maybe different from Mr. Bailey's, but you also have your own ups and downs. The amount of sleep you have, the food you eat and how you exercise area few of the factors that cause rises and falls in your energy level.
We can fill upon coffee and sugar as much as we want, but we're fighting a natural downturn(消退期) in energy when we do this. Your tiredness may seem like an inconvenience, but it's really your body telling you that it needs rest. The best way to beat it is to satisfy this need.
Our bodies operate on a natural clock called a circadian rhythm(生理节奏), This sleep/wake cycle is perfectly adapted to give us enough sleep over the course of a 24-hour period. Natural light is the primary way that your body uses to decide whether or not you should be asleep.
Therefore, circadian rhythms do not agree with the average 9 to 5 job. Irregular sleep schedules, the light from electronic devices, and natural light exposure(暴露) for a long time can also affect the cycle. This is why people working the night shift(夜斑) have an increases risk of developing health problems. They must remain awake when their body tells them it's time for bed, and their sleep schedule is constantly ruined when they try to stay awake on days off.

This is the best time and this is the worst time; this is the time of great material richness and this is the time of desert of soul. Everyone seems to be rushing around for something but they have never fulfilled their dream. Everyone tries to seek happiness but it seems to be nowhere to be found.
When asked “What on earth can make you happy ”, most modern men would give similar replies such as becoming extremely wealthy, or getting promoted in work and then becoming very wealthy. When asked “What will you do with your wealth ”, they would make a long list of things they have been longing for. However, haven't you noticed the multibillionaires(大富豪) are not as happy as we common guys suppose them to be Haven't you noticed that the multibillionaires celebrities don't even enjoy the fundamental freedom of going shopping with their own families without being followed by annoying paparazzi
If we focus our happiness on such big issues, we are bound to be unhappy all through our life, because those big issues might just occur to us once in a blue moon.
As Socrates(苏格拉底) once put it, “He is the richest man who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature.” But how can we “be content with the least” If you pay due attention, our life is loaded with little joys, sometime too little to be noticeable. Stop once in a while in your rush to your destination, look around and you will see that there are always little things worth cheering for. You got an “A” in a test. Good! You listened to all inspiring lecture. Great! You offered a helping hand to someone who had a flat tire. Amazing! Your dream girl or boy greeted you with a sweet smile. Fantastic! And soon and so forth. Let's cheer for the little joys in life!
Please keep in mind that never should we wait to be happy!
