Getting into work mode.
During the normal week, I have no problem working 12+ hours on a computer, and often into the next day. In fact, I quite enjoy it, almost too much so. I don’t even see it as work, so in that respect I find myself quite lucky.
However, I do also love the weekend and I love my down time. I find it tough sometimes, more often than I’d like to admit, to get out of lounge mode and get back into make-a-living mode. I’m not sure when this happens, but somewhere around 7:45 Friday evening usually, for no specific reason (Beer may or may not have an impact on this).
So how do I do it?
Simple, I get out of the house. I go for a run. Or I take the pooch for a walk. Or I just take a walk. Or I go to the bookstore and pickup a book I normally wouldn’t. Or I go to Cosi and scour the web for new gems. Plus, I find this is a good way for me to reset a bit, and often things I forgot about come back to me. Unfortunately, 70% of them then proceed to disappear again.
It’s just the act of getting out of the house that I find tough however. Any tips?
