What is align tasks with energy levels?

Example: You have a cognitively demanding product strategy document due by Friday. On Monday you sat down to write it at 2:30 PM, after two hours of meetings and a large lunch. You stared at the blank page for forty minutes, wrote three paragraphs you later deleted, and ended the day frustrated and behind schedule. On Tuesday you tried a different approach. You blocked 9:00 to 11:00 AM — two to three hours after your 6:30 wake-up, when your cortisol-driven alertness peaks — for the strategy document. No email, no Slack, no meetings. You wrote twelve hundred words in ninety minutes and the structure clicked into place. The difference was not discipline. It was timing. Monday you fought your biology. Tuesday you rode it.
