When I just worked for a company, I just do. Working hours and my own ME time are totally separated. But when I started doing things on my own, I contunuously working on it, minding it. I believe it's hardly the case for everyone. But for those who already married and has family, it's a must to be able to leave work at work most of the times the get home.

As a a founder, I dont. Rather, I cant. It's more about find work - life continum rather than seggregation.

@tushj yeah totally right, it's like a continuous process of balancing, one day more work, another day more family, thank you for sharing your experience

I block my email and slack between 6 pm and 9 am

@tina_armasu, I do the same 🤩
Honestly, it’s hard to fully leave work at work as a founder. But I try to set non-negotiable downtime like a walk, cooking, or reading, and I remind myself that rest is part of being productive. It’s a work in progress :)

@hamza_afzal_butt I love this - non-negotiable downtime like a walk, cooking, or reading - was talking to one of the psychologists we collaborate with and he told me that you can see the balance between work and personal life in the google calendar. (like you look at your calendar and you see directly if you have personal time planned in it)

Moved out of the home office and rented a proper commercial office space to make sure that work stays in the office and time at home goes to the family! Sometimes, work comes back to home with me, but mostly, work stays locked in the office only.

@bhargav5394 I resonate with this very much, we did exactly that, didn't expect that it will have such an impact on me, but it did

I disconnect from work by establishing boundaries and focusing on personal time after hours.
