In the tranquility of early mornings, as the world sleeps and the room gradually brightens with the dawn's natural light;

Within a darkened and moderately cool indoor space;

When my body is slightly hungry, such as an hour before eating;

Adorned in loose clothing that doesn't restrict movement;

Proximate to a tree-lined track where I could talk to myself while taking a break outside of the room;

When the work doesn't have a strict deadline but do have an approximate time frame for completion;

Working on things that I am interested in and preferably enjoy so that I don't procrastinate;

When the work requires me to learn new things and I do know what I don't know;

When the work can be used or seen by other people in a relatively short period of time;

When I'm empowered to influence decision-making, best when it's my own project and I take full initiative;

When my colleagues could relentlessly give me candid and precise feedback;

Notes on the circumstances under which I perform best at work.
