David Kadavy’s book “Mind Management, Not Time Management,” which challenges traditional productivity systems by focusing on how the mind, not the clock, truly drives results. Kadavy argues that success isn’t about scheduling every minute — it’s about mastering your mental rhythms, energy, and creativity to work smarter and avoid burnout.

By understanding your high-focus, low-focus, and restorative mental states, you can match the right tasks to the right mindset for maximum flow and innovation. The book also offers strategies for beating procrastination, aligning goals with mental capacity, and maintaining creative energy through environment, rest, and routine.
