Now that I've started my own business and am mostly flexible on working hours, I've found that I can work a lot more by leaning into my productive times.
I'm usually at my most productive from about 7am-10am. Then I eat breakfast and relax for an hour, and afterwards I can get a couple of hours of work in before lunch (though this is usually less focused time used for more menial work).
I'm useless from lunch until about 3pm - I've always known this; at the office I would just have a huge cup of coffee and try to focus. I take a break and play videogames or read during that time, then I pick it back up for a couple of hours of focused work from 3pm-5pm.
I cook and eat dinner, and then if I have shipments to pack (I'm still very early and shipping physical product myself), I put those together after dinner. I leave that until the end of the day because it's mindless but has to be done before the morning, so it's a good way to force me to do work regardless of how I'm feeling about it.
So I'd say about 5 hours of focused work (I can get in more if I'm super excited/in the zone on something) and another 3ish of more menial stuff.
