Turn Off ... - Deepstash

  • Turn Off

Turn off work mode – both, from your devices and your head.

Turn off work and email notifications. If possible, turn off devices and spend time doing the things that make you happy or spend time with people that make you happy.

It’s important to not let work distract you during times that are supposed to be your ‘off’ times.

Obviously this won’t work for you if you have a job that requires you to be on alert most of the times.

But for a student plus writer like me, it’s easy to shut off my phone and go out on a walk or read or study my favourite subjects.
