The Energy Audit

For one week, track your energy level every hour from waking to sleeping. Use a simple 1-5 scale:

• 5: Sharp, focused, could solve complex problems
• 4: Good energy, productive and clear
• 3: Neutral, can handle routine tasks
• 2: Sluggish, easily distracted, low motivation
• 1: Exhausted, struggling to function

Set an hourly alarm as a reminder. After seven days, average each time slot across the week. Your personal energy map will reveal peaks, troughs, and rebounds with surprising clarity.
