I have discovered a pattern that after around 3 hours of deep mental work I am exhausted and I can’t do anything any more that day.

What are your strategies to get more work done, or just to not feel miserable for the rest of the day?

    Did you get enough sleep the nights before? Have you eaten well and had enough to drink? Do you do modest exercise?

    Don’t think anyone can do a full 8 hour workday of only deep mental work, about 4 hours is more reasonable. Fill the day with some less challenging work.
