How batching my energy changed my weeks
There was a time when every day felt like everything.
Emails. Planning. Writing. Meetings. Thinking. Posting. Replying. Fixing. Starting. Restarting.
And ending the day with this empty feeling — like I did a lot, but nothing moved.
That’s when I tried something weird.
I gave each day a theme.
Mondays became Planning Days.
Tuesdays? Deep Work.
Wednesdays were Admin.
Thursdays for Content.
Fridays to catch up or wander.
Not perfect. But it gave my brain a frame.
When I woke up, I knew the mood of the day.
Didn’t waste energy switching between five hats.
Even if a full day isn’t possible, just one “theme block” helped — 3 hours of focused work without bouncing.
There’s something calming about knowing what today is for.
Some weeks, the plan falls apart.
Life happens. But even then, I come back to my themes.
They hold me. Guide me.
Theme days turned chaos into rhythm.
Try it. Start small. Maybe just one day. One block.
And if it works for you —
Keep it. Tweak it. Make it yours.
