| Lots of good advice for day-to-day. For week-to-week I would set aside two nights a week after work. One night for healthy exercise that is fun, it could be as simple as getting out and walking to a worthwhile destination, or more athletic activity like biking or swimming but it must be fun for you, to do something like this definitely once a week if you are not already at least this active. If you sometimes end up doing it twice in one week well you probably wouldn't hesitate to get twice as healthy since it would be twice the fun. Then another night for healthy socializing that is fun. This is the tough one since it has to be in person and you have to make a dedicated effort for this too, even if you just have one friend or neighbor over for a casual visit or get out and interact with interesting people in larger numbers. This has been missing for people everywhere for a while now and Covid may still not allow as healthy socializing as you need. But the outlook is beginning to seem a little better. These could be two different things or not, and it's worth experimenting with a variety of alternatives to be happy with just a couple things like this that you would look forward to each week. If your hours are very flexible you still probably want to do these things when it's "after work time" for other people, so you are not much different than them, just doing things after work sometimes. It can help get your mind off unfinished business if you do have a full productive workday planned and get a respectable amount accomplished that day before it's time for you to go out and leave it all behind for a few hours. This was quite satisfactory for a time when I didn't work similar hours or activities as other people, except for two days a week where the resemblance was intentional. |
