Catch Up On Movies

Instead of choosing something safe and predictable, consider expanding your cinematic tastes.
That makes it difficult to actually disconnect when the notifications just keep coming on your phone.
Consider actually getting out the city for once.
Go for a day hike.Go on a camping trip.Go somewhere where literally cant answer emails.
Taking a hike can evenboost your creativity.
It also sold out instantly.
Of course, not everyone has access to a pool.
Speaking for myself, that leaves part of my brain unscratched and bored.
Thats why I occasionally like toput myself to work on hobby projects completely unrelated to anything at my job.
Perhaps you would like todo some woodworking.
Perhaps you would like tomake your own electronicsorlearn how to 3D print.
Its not that hard.
For a more literal escape,you could try your hand at fictionor poetry.
So consider taking a vacation.
Actually do it; dont just stay home from work and then do your work anyway.
If your line of work makes it difficult,plan as much in advance as you might.
Even if youre obsessed with getting things done, chances areyoull more productive when you come back.
Sorelax a little, why dont you.
