Simon Mackie, writing over at the productivity blog Web Worker Daily, laments his struggles ending his work day and getting back to the business of living. He offers several strategies including having a clearly defined ending time:
This is an important one for me because if I don't, I'll tend to find myself working later and later. Having a goal end time also means that I try to get all my tasks done for the day by that time which makes my afternoon more productive. Of course, sometimes an emergency will pop up that needs dealing with there and then, but I try to make sure that I only extend my working time for emergencies.Have different ideas? Please tell us.
