I should be sleeping right now...
I've been trying to adjust my sleep schedule so I go to bead earlier so I can get up at around 9 without being uselessly tired. Haven't managed yet but I hope to get there slowly.

Sleep less. Drink coffee.
I worked as a Night Auditor for 3 years where I taught myself web development and landed my first tech job at a startup. Luckily the meetings were late afternoon which is a little after I wake up.
I'd take care of ghe code during the night/morning, review it before the meeting, meet, rinse and repeat.
Fortunately/unfortunately depending on how you look at it, the startup got to MVP, but also ran out of money. Now I'll be looking for work again, but my sleep schedule is still vampire time.
I'm considering looking for remote work on the other side of the pond. I'm in the US. Other than that I guess I have to go through the extremely painful process of changing my sleep habits.

I live in central Europe and work remotely with US team. Most people locally work from 7-8, I start work at 10.
10 years ago I'd be awake from 12 till 3 in the morning, it took me a few years to migrate towards 10 till 1. I still do oversleep on weekends, though.
Changed my sleep schedule to 6pm-2am. I get to be up at night while making it to morning meetings.
I am remote and run my department (it's just me). There are some customer facing things but I have clients in all different timezones so it actually works out well. I typically clock on at 10am, take a long lunch, and often do a few more hours in the evening if clients need me.
By not participating in it, mostly.
