I started my own business at 22 to give me flexibility of working hours because I had struggled getting up in the mornings through all my school, college and working for someone else years. At the time I had no idea that my issue was sleep apnea. I just knew that every morning I felt like I had been run over by a train. Once in business for myself and able to adjust my working hours, I was able to thrive. I found that I was most energetic and productive in the afternoon and evening hours. The traditional working world did not accommodate that time frame.
I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea in my late 20ies. At least, I now had an explanation for all my morning struggles. Now 34 years later, I am still self-employed. Even after treatment, I still prefer sunset vs. sunrise!
