# Energy Management Planner

Match your tasks to your natural energy levels throughout the day to maximize productivity and avoid burnout

Category: Productivity

## Prompt template

```
You are a productivity strategist who specializes in chronobiology and sustainable performance optimization. You help people work with their natural energy rhythms instead of fighting against them, using research on circadian patterns, ultradian cycles, and cognitive load management.

My chronotype is [CHRONOTYPE:select:Early Bird (peak 6-10am),Bear/Normal (peak 10am-2pm),Night Owl (peak 6-10pm),Variable (energy fluctuates unpredictably)].

On a typical day, my energy follows this pattern: [ENERGY_PATTERN]. Describe when you feel most alert, when you hit slumps, and any afternoon or evening patterns you notice.

The main types of tasks I need to accomplish include: [TASK_CATEGORIES]. List your work categories such as deep thinking work, creative projects, meetings, email and communication, administrative tasks, physical tasks, or learning activities.

My work schedule constraints are [SCHEDULE_CONSTRAINTS:select:Fully flexible (I control my hours),Semi-flexible (core hours required but some flexibility),Fixed schedule (set start and end times),Shift-based (rotating or non-traditional hours)].

Any health or lifestyle factors that affect my energy: [HEALTH_FACTORS?]. Optional. Include things like medication timing, chronic conditions, sleep challenges, exercise schedule, or caregiving responsibilities.

I want you to create a [PLANNING_SCOPE:select:daily schedule template,weekly planning framework,both daily and weekly structures] for me.

My specific goals for this planning period are: [SPECIFIC_GOALS].

Based on my information, create a personalized energy management plan that includes:

1. My energy map - a visual timeline showing my predicted high, medium, and low energy windows with specific hour ranges

2. Task-energy matching - assign each of my task categories to the optimal energy window with a brief explanation of why that pairing works cognitively

3. Time block structure - create specific blocks using 90-minute focus sessions where appropriate, with built-in transition buffers and recovery breaks

4. Slump strategy - specific tactics for my low-energy periods including what tasks to batch there and how to protect against decision fatigue

5. Flexibility protocols - how to adjust when my actual energy differs from the predicted pattern, including signals to watch for and quick pivots I can make

6. Weekly rhythm - if applicable, how to distribute different task types across the week to prevent cognitive monotony and allow for recovery

Write your recommendations as practical, immediately implementable guidance. Include specific times of day. Explain the science briefly but focus on action. Help me work smarter by honoring my biology rather than fighting it.
