Energy Management Beats Time Management

Use your best hours for your best work. It\'s that simple—and that effective.

Map Your Energy

Track your energy hourly for a week. Most people have 2–3 peaks. Schedule deep work there.

Align Your Tasks

  • Peak: strategy, writing, design, coding
  • Mid: collaboration, brainstorming
  • Low: email, expenses, scheduling

Build Routines

Create a simple morning warm-up (10 minutes) and an afternoon reset (5 minutes). Protect your peaks with calendar blocks.

Peak block 1: 9:00–10:30 • Peak block 2: 1:00–2:30 • Admin: 3:00–4:00
