Energy tracking is the practice of observing and recording personal energy levels throughout the day to understand patterns and optimize daily routines. Unlike simple time management, it focuses on physical, mental, and emotional vitality. Individuals note when they feel most alert, creative, or calm, then schedule demanding tasks during peak energy windows. This approach supports sustainable productivity by working with natural rhythms rather than against them. Tracking can be done through simple journals, apps, or mood logs. Over time, this awareness helps prevent burnout, improves decision-making, and encourages healthier habits like movement, hydration, and rest. Energy tracking promotes self-compassion and mindful living.
