I miss having clear separation between the time/space for work and time/space for leisure. I do keep the same hours but even my commute (provided that it isn't horrible) has the value of telling my brain "work starts now" in the morning and then "work ends now" at the end of the day.
- mindcrime 7y agoThis is where bike riding and running come in for me. Those are my standard "after work" activities anyway, so when quitting time comes around, I put on my shorts, grab my bike (or running shoes) and head to the trails. That, to me, demarcates that it is now "after work". But, as noted in my other reply, weather doesn't always cooperate. But on a day like today, I may pick "going grocery shopping" as my line of demarcation. Worst case, I could get in my truck and just go drive around a little bit to achieve the same purpose.
- evangelosdotnl 7y agoagreed! Separation is indeed really tricky, my schedule has changed a lot and my sleeping circle is totally different!
