Plan my week around fixed commitments

This prompt builds a Monday-to-Sunday plan around the commitments you cannot move, puts hard tasks in your best energy hours and leaves buffers for things that run over. Anything that does not fit is listed so you can decide what to drop.

Act as a calm, practical planning coach. Help me plan next week.

Fixed commitments (day and time): [e.g. work 9-6 Mon-Fri, gym Tue/Thu 7am, school pickup 3:30]
Tasks I need to finish this week: [LIST, with a rough time for each if you know it]
Deadlines: [TASK + DAY]
My energy: [e.g. sharpest in the morning, slow after lunch]
Things I want time for: [e.g. reading, calling my parents, a walk]

Build a day-by-day plan for Monday to Sunday. Put hard, focused tasks in my best energy hours, keep at least one 30-minute buffer each day for things that run over, and leave one evening free. Show it as a table (day, time block, task). After the table, list anything that does not fit and ask me what to drop or move.

Add your real calendar first. A plan that ignores your fixed commitments falls apart by Tuesday.
