Just in a moment when you\u2019re about to have a panic attack, someone comes along and very helpfully suggests that you should just calm down. \u201cThanks, friend.

On the one hand, who doesn\u2019t love having an internet machine in their back pocket at all times? On the flip side, it means that your emails are always with you and that flashing notification light makes you feel lazy if you ignore it for too long.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1640024690497{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;]But the number one most useful piece of advice I can give you when it comes to stress management is to actually disconnect when you head home at the end of the day. Focus on your family, your pets, your hobbies. Your work will be waiting for you the next day, don\u2019t worry.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1640024696824{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;]Turn off the email notifications on your phone. You really don\u2019t need a \u201cbeep\u201d and flashing light every time you get a newsletter delivered to your business inbox. If it makes you feel better, check your email once (yes, only once) in the evening in case of emergencies (which is very unlikely to actually happen, by the way). Before long, you\u2019ll stop even doing that and you\u2019ll actually find yourself looking for something to do on your evenings and weekends. You know, something OTHER than \u201ccatching up on work\u201d.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1640024703369{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;]So disconnect when you get home and only use your smartphone for what it was intended: ordering pizza and playing Candy Crush.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;30&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Plan_to_Work_Work_your_Plan\"><\/span>2.

Put it in your personal calendar and make sure your colleagues\/employees know you\u2019re busy during this time. Again, turn off your email notifications (including the desktop ones!) and don\u2019t answer calls unless you know they\u2019re crazy-important. Now take out your long-overdue \u201cto do\u201d list and start knocking off the important stuff. You know, the stuff you know NEEDS to get done but that you never have the time for.
