#energy-management

Optimize productivity by managing energy, not just time. Framework: 1. Identify your peak energy hours (track for 1 week). 2. Schedule deep work during peak times. 3. Batch low-energy tasks (emails, admin) during slumps. 4. Take strategic breaks (90-min work cycles). 5. Manage physical energy (nutrition, hydration, movement). 6. Manage emotional energy (positive people, gratitude). 7. Manage mental energy (single-tasking, minimize decisions). Most people peak mid-morning. Post-lunch dip is normal. Use ultradian rhythms. Protect your best hours. Energy > time for productivity. Based on 'The Power of Full Engagement'.
