Are you a morning lark or a night owl? | @ShadeZahrai #shorts

All of us have a unique body clock that determines when our most productive hours are - our ‘biological prime-time’. It’s called ‘circadian typology’ (also known as chronotype).  

Your biological prime-time is when you have the greatest levels of energy (along with focus and motivation), and as a result you also have the greatest potential to be productive. ⁣
⁣
A secret of peak performers is that they understand when their mind and body are at their peak, and they schedule their tasks based on their body’s natural energy and focus rhythm.⁣

To tap into your unique energy rhythm:

1️⃣ Over the course of a week, track your energy levels each hour to determine when you have your peaks, and when you have your troughs.

2️⃣ Once you understand your rhythm make the most of it!

Here’s how 👇

📈 MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR PEAKS: ⁣
Whenever your ‘biological prime-time’ is, schedule your highest-leverage activities during this time, as well as any tasks or activities that require the most energy. ⁣
⁣
📉 MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR DIPS: ⁣
During your troughs, take breaks, do activities that require less energy and focus, go for a short walk when you notice the initial drop in energy to boost your internal body temperature and circulation. Importantly, pay attention to what you’re eating and how the food you fuel yourself with influences how you feel.⁣⁣
⁣
Work WITH your body's natural rhythm, not against it, for optimal results
