That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up, John ! You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.
