Married, no children 5:55am - Wake up and have a light breakfast 6:30am - Start the work day 11:30ish - Lunch 3:30pm - Finish work day; I cannot stress how great it is to start and end the work day early (I have to work during 3 "core hours" but my schedule is flexible beyond that). It is like I have my entire day left ahead of me to enjoy. 3:30pm - Take a walk; this is a somewhat new addition to the schedule and has become quite critical. It dawned on my how important my daily walk to-from work was to my health and how I had lost that, so I reinstated walking into the routine. 4:00pm - Finish up house chores (folding laundry, vacuuming, etc) 4:30pm - Play games for while to flush the day's work from my mind, then work on personal projects, before my wife gets home. If need be, I do external chores (grocery shopping, for example) Exercise every other day in the evening. Someone asked about meetings, and to tell the truth I tend to have shockingly few meetings. Big group meetings (all staff, all engineers, all team) are relatively rare. Beyond those, I have almost nothing. For example, this week I have one (1) 30-minute meeting. Next week I have three (3) meetings, totaling four (4) hours.
