Our brains don’t run at full speed all day long—they follow a daily rhythm: Peak, Trough, Recovery. Larks (15% of us) and the middle majority (two-thirds) experience peak focus in the morning, a midday dip, and a late-afternoon boost. Owls (20%) peak later in the day, following a recovery-trough-peak cycle.

The magic? Often, once you start, you’ll do 10, 20, or more. But even if you don’t, you’ve still made progress. Small steps keep you moving forward.
