Ask HN: How do you get started on contributing to open source projects? 11 years ago
find a project you enjoy, see if they have any bugs and try to fix them. Even writing documentation is a contribution to open source.

Yeah I agree.
Personally I tend to get up three hours earlier than the day job, work on my projects, go to work then have an earlier night. But that doesn't work for everyone. You need to do what suits you. Increasing the amount of exercise I.E. cardio can improve motivation and productivity.
