Plan My Day

Generate a clean, actionable hour-by-hour plan for the day based on current priorities and energy windows.

Usage

/plan-my-day [optional: YYYY-MM-DD for future date]

Planning Principles

  1. Morning Priming - Protect your first hour for waking rituals, not tasks
  2. Energy-Based Scheduling - Match task difficulty to energy levels
  3. Time Blocking - Assign specific time windows to specific work
  4. Top 3 Focus - Identify the 3 most important outcomes for the day

Energy Windows (Customize to Your Rhythm)

  • Peak Performance: Morning (deep work, hardest tasks)
  • Secondary Peak: Afternoon (focused work, meetings)
  • Recovery Blocks: Breaks for exercise, meals, rest
  • Wind Down: Evening (lighter tasks, planning)

Process

  1. Gather Context

    • Check existing daily notes
    • Review current priorities
    • Identify fixed commitments (meetings, calls)
    • Check pending tasks from yesterday

  2. Identify Top 3 Priorities

    • What MUST happen today?
    • What moves the needle most?
    • What has a deadline?

  3. Build Time-Blocked Schedule

    • Assign priorities to peak energy windows
    • Block fixed commitments
    • Add buffer time between blocks
    • Include breaks and recovery

  4. Apply Constraints

    • Respect existing appointments
    • Protect personal time
    • Include meal breaks
    • Don't over-schedule

Decision-Making Framework

Before doing ANYTHING, ask:

  1. Is this one of my top 3 priorities?
  2. Does this move me toward today's goal?
  3. Can this wait until tomorrow?

If NO to all three → DON'T DO IT

Tips

  • Don't schedule 100% of your time - leave 20% buffer
  • Put your hardest task in your peak energy window
  • Group similar tasks together (batching)
  • Schedule breaks, don't just hope for them
  • Review and adjust mid-day if needed
