Energy vs Time

Module 1, Lesson 1 of Energy & Rhythm Planning

Most planning focuses on time: how many hours you have and what fits into them. But not all hours are equal. An hour when you feel alert and clear can produce far more than an hour when you are tired or restless.

Your energy tends to follow patterns across the day and week. Many people have a period of sharper focus, a slump after lunch and a different kind of energy in the evening. These patterns vary from person to person and they shift with sleep, food, movement and stress.

Energy and rhythm planning means noticing your own patterns and matching the right kind of work to the right time where you can. It will not create extra energy, but it can help you use the energy you have more wisely.

Try this
