Energy Management
Version 1.0.0 · Updated 2026-07-30
CORE DEFINITION
Manage your energy, not time. Time is linear; energy fluctuates (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual). Performance = quality of energy × focused time.
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Rhythm regulation. Don't try to run at a constant speed like a machine. Instead, like an athlete, pulse between full engagement and strategic recovery in 90-minute cycles.
Anchor fast decisions
Refers to managing output with fluctuating energy rather than linear time as the core resource, maintaining high-quality engagement through rhythm, recovery, and prioritization.
