Good Morning, I wanted to come back to the post I did a couple of days ago about end of day. I was working and had to just stop since it was getting late and I needed to get dinner started, and post on my blog.
So I really don't like to just end the day abruptly when there is so much going on and really kind of thinking through about how can slow my late afternoons down a little so that I can end the day at a decent hour.
Its really hard to do that when you are working from home but I do feel it is especially more important to do it and set a boundary to end the day. The work will always be there when you return the next morning. Yesterday, I was working on an important project that is due next week so when 4:00pm came close, I stopped working on it and finished up where I was.
Now, I am no where close to getting the project done, but I really wanted to get up from the chair, walk around, check in with my kids, think about checking the rest of the emails and wrapping up the day. it worked out much better for me.
So from now on, decided that around 4:00pm I am going to do start wrapping it up and just stop what I am working on. I know that this may not work all the time, but on the days where there are no meetings or deadlines, I can certainly make it work.
So for your something to ponder over today, what changes can you implement to end your day at a decent hour and slow down? Is there anything that you can change or move around so you are able to gently step away from work and tend to other things in your life?
We all can make it better for ourselves and we just need to set the right boundaries. You can do this and it does not even need to be anything too drastic. Start with one small change to end the day at a decent hour. Reflect on how it goes.
Hope you found this tip helpful.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!
Peace
Monita
