  How Energy Tracking Unlocked 400% More Productivity (While Working Fewer Hours) I used to pride myself on my work ethic—10-hour days, always hustling, always “busy.” But deep down, I knew something was off: I ended most days feeling exhausted, but with little to show for it.

I realized: I was mistaking activity for achieve...
