Formula or structure
Focus minutes = working hours × 60 − commitments − breaks; blocks = floor(focus minutes / block length)
Worked example
An 8-hour day minus 90 routine minutes and 60 break minutes leaves 330 minutes: six 50-minute blocks and 30 spare minutes.
How to use it

- Enter your own figures or select Load example to inspect a worked scenario.

Assumptions and interpretation
The spare minutes are not another full block. Add transition time to routine commitments and leave room for unexpected work.
