4 AM, The approximate point in time, not during normal human waking hours, at
which the mind becomes most responsive and flexible in stimulus response,
facilitating clear expression of ideas. Increased activity of dopamine at 4
AM seems to be related to positive mood and abstract thinking, possibly
leading to higher motivation. This might also be related to why food tastes
better, on average, at 4 AM. Considered by leading scientists to be the best
time for coherent and creative communication (Casoria, 2010).
