Like the last two commenters, I especially love the "First Hour" idea. I will definitely be checking out this site more in the near future. Thanks for your efforts!

I tend to check my emails etc but to actually do what is really important to me...hmm... this forces me to re-examine my priorities. Thanks for this. Doug Yes,I like the first hour idea as well.

I often use the first hour to just surf the web. By the time I'm done, I don't feel like working on my main projects anymore :) I think organizing your activity in correlation with the time of the day and your energy level can have a lot of benefits. Eduard Hey Ali,

Asking for support is something I haven't usually done, but you are right that others would be genuinely interested in helping if I thought of where they could. Your point about setting up a day to do what is important sure makes sense to me. If we can plan a future day that we have free in advance, to use it for one solid activity, we can do more in that day than we normally do in a week. As usual, great points here and great use of bolding to get the key messages through. Hey Ali.
