Build an end-of-day routine
Developing an end-of-day routine helps us wind-down and get ready to go home. It gets you motivated even when you don't feel like it. Routines let us fall back on our everyday habits to make sure that, in this case, we leave the office on time without having to rely on willpower or memory.
Here are some things you can do for your end-of-day routine:
- Tidy up your desk and close out every tab open
- Review your completed tasks at the end of the day and plan out tomorrow's to-do list realistically
- Leave open one tab for your "most important task" in the morning
- Have a quick-win ready
