The week feels full, but you can't say why.

Most of us track time. Few of us track energy. Here's how it usually sounds.

"I did so much and feel flat."

Hours add up, yet nothing tells you which of them felt like fuel and which felt like a leak.

"I say yes on autopilot."

Without a clear picture, every request looks equal, so your calendar fills with whatever shouted first.

"I forgot what I used to enjoy."

Small things that once made your day slip out of the routine because nobody wrote them down.

What's inside

A downloadable workbook plus web-access printable sheets. Everything is concrete and fill-in-ready.

How it works

Plan on about ten minutes a day for a week, and an hour at the end.

How long does it take?

About ten minutes a day for a week, plus roughly an hour for the review. You can stretch it out if you need to.

Do I need any special tools?

No. A printer or a PDF reader is enough, and a pen helps.

No. It's a single payment of US$21 and the materials are yours to keep.

Will it work for me?
