What can I try to help with low energy?

When you hit low energy, ask yourself three questions: "Have I eaten in the last 3 hours? Have I had a glass of water recently? Did I sleep enough last night?" Address the most obvious one first. If you must do something during low energy, make it the simplest possible version — answer one email, do one maths problem, tidy one shelf. Micro-progress still counts. Try a "soft restart" — step outside for 60 seconds of daylight and fresh air, then come back inside. Sunlight signals your brain to increase alertness even when you are tired.
