You can make the opposite tradeoff, work on side projects very early (I start working on mine at 4am) and work at normal hours after.

The tradeoff is you might be less enthusiastic at work, but I've not suffered from this yet (big yet, remains to be seen). Also, you need to be more of a lark to do something like this.



I've started doing this, noticed I'm ridiculously more productive in the two hours before work than after.
