Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “Empress Time Frame” thing, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I wanted to see if I could actually use it to get a better handle on my day, so here’s how it all went down.
Getting Started
First, I just grabbed a piece of paper – nothing fancy. I needed to figure out what my “peak” times are. You know, those times when you’re just on and can crush anything. For me, that’s usually mid-morning and then again in the late afternoon.
Marking It Down
I drew a simple timeline across the page, just a line with hours marked. Then I highlighted my peak times. Easy peasy.
Blocking Out the Rest
- Next, I blocked out the times I know I’m usually useless. Like, right after lunch? Forget about it. Total brain fog.
- I also marked times for regular stuff, like checking emails and doing routine tasks. I put those in the “low energy” slots.
Putting It to the Test
The real test was actually sticking to it. I started by scheduling my most important, brain-intensive work during my highlighted “Empress” times. It felt weird at first, not gonna lie. Like, I’m so used to just plowing through my to-do list in whatever order.
For a few days I was * it does take some getting used to.
The Results?
Honestly? It’s been pretty good. I’m not saying I’m suddenly a productivity superhero, but I definitely noticed a difference. I felt more focused during those peak times, and I actually got more done.
It’s still a work in progress, and I’m tweaking things as I * I feel so suprise that I did. And I’ll keep using and updating it.
