What really matters is how we manage energy in a day. Whether we accept it or not, energy, at least mental, is
a finite resource and that it depletes from the moment we wake up. Hence as we proceed in the day, it
becomes difficult to take better decisions or do hard tasks. Despite being very rational and having a ton
of great mental models under our belt, we will do stupid things and despite being motivated enough, we
push the deadlines for the simple reason that we don’t have energy left.
Track your energy resource and schedule your priorities for the day according to this plain fact. The
the general rule is to do cognitively taxing things and take important decisions first.
