Careful, going down this path will make you realise that if you can optimise your workday and eliminate any distractions such as meetings and wasted time, you'd fill 3-4 hours of extreme focused work, and you'd be spent. In normal office work, these 4 hours of focus are spread over 8 hours. I have reached this state, and it feels surreal to complete a day's worth of work in my morning, so I have the entire afternoon for chores, research and other unstructured me or family time. The silver lining of the pandemic is that it might be the first step towards the abolishment of the 40 hours week. We're talking about 4 day work week now and it's still far too much time dedicated to your employer, that's still filled with mostly nonsense. We should be pushing for the 15-20 hour work week instead. Or just be your own boss I guess.
