Energy level tracker
Schedule the hard work for when you are actually sharp.
Everyone has hours where difficult work is easy and hours where it is not, and those hours are more consistent than people expect. Rating your energy a few times a day for two weeks shows the pattern, and it is often not the one you assumed.

Four steps to finding your peak
Two weeks of logging is enough to see it clearly.
Rate at fixed points
Morning, afternoon and evening, at roughly the same times. Rating only when you notice something skews the whole record.
Add the context
A note about sleep, food or a heavy meeting explains the outliers later, when you have forgotten what that Tuesday was like.
Read the seven-day averages
Single days are noisy. The averages by time of day are where the actual pattern shows up.
Move the hard work
Put demanding work in your two highest hours and admin in the trough. This is the only step that changes anything.
Why energy beats time management
An hour at peak energy is worth several at the bottom.
Hours are not interchangeable
Scheduling treats every hour as equal. Difficult work in your worst hour can take three times as long and still come out worse.
Protects your best hours
Once you know which two hours are your peak, giving them away to a routine meeting becomes an obvious mistake.
Makes the afternoon dip usable
The post-lunch dip is normal. Knowing when yours lands lets you plan admin and email for it instead of fighting through analysis.
Explains the bad days
Notes alongside the ratings usually reveal a repeating cause: poor sleep, skipped meals, a specific recurring meeting.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I log?
Log three times a day: morning, afternoon and evening. That is enough to find the pattern without the logging becoming a task in itself. Consistency matters more than frequency.
How long before the pattern is reliable?
Two weeks. One week gets distorted by a single bad night or an unusual workload; two weeks of averages is stable enough to plan around.
What if my peak is at an inconvenient time?
Protect what you can. Even moving one demanding task into a genuine peak hour, or pushing routine work into the trough, changes the shape of the week.
