Everyone needs time to transition from work time to personal time. Think about this in terms of driving a car. If you change the gears too fast, the gears don’t mesh. They grind.
Your family and friends will notice that you’re still “at work” if you fail to draw a line in the sand between your work time and your personal time. It grinds their emotional gears.
Find your work life balance by using the methods I teach in this short video.
Action Steps:
- You can use a commute to transition from work to personal time. Instead of listening to work related things when you’re in the car, listen to something that addresses your personal interests.
- Many people exercise at the end of their work day. This will give you more energy for the remainder of the day, too.
- You can also use a hobby to help make a mental transition. I play video games for 30 minutes a day after work every single day. Find something that works for you regardless of how silly it seems.
