Ever try to stick to a schedule that looks good in your calendar…

…but feels completely off when you try to follow it?

​

If so, you’re not lazy or inconsistent.
​

You’re probably just trying to time block against your energy, instead of with it.
​

That’s what we’re exploring in Part Two of this series.
​

When you build your schedule around your natural energy rhythms, time blocking starts to feel like support – not pressure.

​

Here’s a simple framework you can start using this week:

EXERCISE: How to Time Block When Your Energy Levels Fluctuate

​

1. Make an Energy Calendar or Map
   ​

Track when you feel most energetic – and what kind of energy it is. Every 30 or 60 minutes, rate your energy:
​

• 1 / red = little energy
  ​
• 2 / yellow = some energy
  ​
• 3 / green = high energy
  ​

Overlay this on your existing calendar using colours or numbers.
​

You can even get more specific with energy types, like:
​

• Creative, focused, or conversational energy
  ​
• Admin energy, writing energy, people energy
  ​
• Desk energy, outdoor energy, or coworking energy
  ​

​

2. Make an Energy Bucket List
   ​

Make a list of recurring or one-off tasks in your week/month. Next to each task:

​

1. Assign the energy type it requires
   ​
2. Batch similar-energy tasks together
   ​
3. Schedule them during energy-aligned times on your regular calendar
   ​

​

3. Revisit and Refine
   ​

This isn’t one-and-done. Revisit your Energy Map anytime your responsibilities or capacity shift, like changes in health, workload, or life rhythms.
​

This framework helps your calendar reflect your reality – and makes it way easier to follow through with focus, consistency, and ease.
