I started planing my days around a 4 hour period where I am fully concentrated with no mail, meetings etc. I set myself goals for this period and do not care about the rest of the work day. Just get this 4 hours in and you're good. I work more than 4 hours a day, but most of the work is getting done in those 4 hours. Consistency is key in life! With everything, working out, eating healthy, raising children.

I've been doing the same thing. Morning is my productive time of the day. I work from home, so before I take a shower I make a pot of coffee and then after shower I get on it. If I can accomplish a couple (maybe only one) things in that four hour period in the morning I feel good. I also like to go to the gym around 3 in the afternoon. The gym time gives me a little time to reflect and plan. And then after that I have a good 2 hours of "endorphin" rush to work some more before I start getting tired and relax, do some more planning, research (not implementation stuff) for tomorrow. Eating healthy seems key too. I've never been a breakfast person, but I force myself to eat some protein and maybe some fruit so I'm not crashing (and then eating the wrong) thing mid-morning. I've also got a 5 year which can drain the energy levels, so I need to plan so I can spend time with him at night.
