I'm just about exactly opposite. I can get a ton done in the morning, but then just loose focus around 2:30 and after. I tend to schedule meetings in the afternoon.

If I know I have a lot to do I'll sometimes come in early like 6:30 or 7:00 or something..

Interesting how different people work differently. I'm a big believer in flexible work scheduling that allows each person to optimize for themselves.

I know this is random health advice from someone on the internet, but you might consider recording how you feel and looking for correlation with carbohydrate intake for breakfast/lunch.

I've been this same way for years, and have been discovering that carbs trigger a hypoglycemic reaction that tanks my energy. Going low carb improved things quite a bit.

Anecdotally, for me it's vice versa, I find that without sufficient protein I run down quickly.

How is that vice versa? Low carb != low protein.

Rather than being "too much of a thing causes me to run down", it's "absence of a thing causes me to run down".
