2.26 How to manage your energy

Send Vikki any questions you'd like answered on the show!

How many times have you seen or been on a time management course? How many books and podcasts and blogs and social media posts have you seen about time management?

 I want you to compare that to how many times you've seen courses and support for energy management. So much less. It's so rare to see people discussing energy management compared to how often we see people talking about time management, and it just doesn't make sense because time passes. We can organize our tasks within time, but we can never manage time itself. It's the one commodity we have very little control over.

But that's okay. Because actually time management is rarely the issue. Our issues are usually around energy management and focus management, yet there's much less support out there for this. So that's why I'm recording this podcast.
