Discussion on: How do you "wind down" the work week effectively?

On Fridays, I like to leave a sticky note for myself of what I want to work on or look into next.

Helps mark an "end" to the week.

Monday mornings are especially packed with meetings for me so I end up discombobulated on Mondays more than anything. The sticky note lets me know what that "next thing" is that I should be doing.

It's intentionally a physical sticky note and not in my usual todo.txt file, so there's no excuse for missing it in the shuffle.

Sometimes I have some cute fun with my future-self:

"Fix Xcode. Sorry I broke it ♡ but happy hour is starting!"

Friday is good. So is every other day. Creating tomorrow's TODO list at the end if each day is an amazingly efficient way to become both more productive and more relaxed.
