People’s chronotype is divided into three categories

• Lions

• Wolfs

• Bears

• Dolphins

Lions

They are the typical early birds. These individuals wake up early and are most productive at the early hours of the day, but they may have difficulty keeping up with social activities at night.

Lions tend to be up early full of energy sharp in the morning with a goal-oriented lifestyle.

These are the leader who gets things done without getting distracted. They are analytical and organized they prioritize their health and work hard. They tend to have the ideal setup for normal social expectations

So it's productive for lions to schedule their more mentally exhausting tasks early in the morning and leave the easy tasks for late evening

As a Lions myself, I used to study for my exams in the early morning between 3 am or 4 am to sunrise and whenever I study at those hours I would be able to finish more of the test material than when I study at night or the afternoon.

Bears

According to Dr. Breus, the bear chronotype makes up to 55% of the population. People with the intermediate chronotype tend to follow the sun.

Bears tend to sleep well even though it takes a little while to get going in the morning.

These people are playful and affectionate generally they lead a healthy lifestyle and are good students and team players

They do well with traditional office hours and do not have a problem with maintaining a late-night social activity

Wolfs

They are equivalent to the classic night owls and is believed to make up approximately 15% of the population

Behaving somewhat nocturnally, your energy level is usually highest later in the day or early evening.

These people tend to be fearless. Insightful intuitive but somewhat out of sync with most of the world

Dolphins

The dolphin chronotype is based on the ability of real dolphins to stay alert even in their sleep. You can describe people with the dolphin chronotype as insomniacs

Dolphins typically struggle to nap and wake up feeling unrefreshed from sleep.

This means they are generally tired throughout the day with a spurt of energy later in the evening.
