If you are awake at 4 am, and have to be at work at 7, should you even try to get back to sleep or should you try to do something with your time?

Sometimes (infrequently) I'll take a magnesium pill, and that will help me go back to sleep. Or, I'll go read in another dimly lit room for about 20 minutes and then return to the bedroom go back to sleep.

But, once in a while, I'll feel creative at 4am and just get up and do something (write, code, whatever) until it's time to get ready for work. I'm an early bird out of decades of routine, but wish I could be a night owl. I love how quiet it is at night.
