Understand your chronotype

As a leader, you're juggling a diverse set of tasks every day, and the best way to tackle them effectively is by understanding your chronotype. A chronotype is essentially your body’s natural clock that dictates when you’re most alert and energetic throughout the day. It's why some of us are morning people, buzzing with energy at dawn, while others find their stride in the afternoon or evening.

To find your chronotype, pay attention to when you naturally wake up feeling refreshed and when you hit your energy highs and lows. This insight allows you to align your tasks with your energy levels. For instance, if you're a morning person, schedule your most demanding or important tasks for the early part of the day. If your energy peaks later, save those big tasks for the afternoon or evening.^[1]
