How often has someone told you that to better time manage you should be spending more time working? You’ve probably heard it a lot. “Wake up an hour earlier, read a book every night about your industry, work out on your lunch break…” they say.
In a world largely dedicated to work, that is too often the mantra, but it doesn’t leave much time for taking care of yourself and spending time with your family. Don’t believe the hype. Time management is good, but energy management is better. Let’s talk about some effective steps to increase your productivity and better your quality of life through effective energy management.
