If you want to crush my day, don't give me a meeting at all.

Whatever when it's in the day.

What's up, guys?

Welcome to another five-minute fatherhood.

So one of my favorite hacks when it comes to rhythms, what I like to tweak and retweak and try and retry, is trying to figure out the right time during the day and the week for certain

activities and making sure that I'm finding ways for them to match the energy that I'm typically

feeling at that time of the week or that time of the day. Now, this is a huge critical tool for

people who, if you're saying, oh my gosh, I do not have energy for my rhythm.

Like, I know I've got this much to do, but I'm just, I'm at a low energy place in life.

Or I'm always struggling with energy.

That's just a struggle that I constantly have.

I would say that that's definitely one of the

themes of what I've wrestled with in terms of productivity is that I struggle a lot with

having, I can't just manufacture creative energy during certain times of the day or productive

energy or a lot of its extroverted energy for meetings and stuff like that. But I've

discovered that that if I try to sync up those different activities at different times of the day,

it really has helped me. A bunch of examples for me is I can do meetings way better in the afternoon

than in early in the morning. If you want to crush

my day energy-wise, you just destroy it, then schedule a meeting for me, any kind of meeting

with another person before 9 a.m. And my day, my energy for my day is just like bankruptcy.

I'm really sensitive in that way for some weird, weird reason,

and I know other people that are. Not everybody has that problem. I really wish I were a morning
