Why Weekly Hour Allocation Matters

Best Practices for Weekly Hour Allocation

Start with Your Non-Negotiables

Before allocating project time, block out:

• Sleep (56 hours/week recommended)
• Meals and personal care (14 hours/week)
• Exercise and health (7 hours/week)
• Family and social time (14 hours/week)

This leaves you with approximately 77 hours for work and projects.

Apply the 80/20 Rule

Dedicate 80% of your time to your most important projects and 20% to exploration, learning, or smaller tasks.

Build in Buffer Time

Always allocate 10-15% extra time for unexpected tasks or delays.
