Do you have enough free time apart from your work to do things that you like?

Question

Does work cover your all day, or do you have enough free time for daily stuffs?

Anıl B. Ceylan · Accepted Answer

Generally I have enough times for daily stuff but sometimes the work takes too much time. I even forget to eat.

Ahmet Umut Günbak · Answer

Yes, but I usually need to schedule the activities in advance otherwise it is hard to spend my free time efficiently since it is separated into short time periods because of work

Oksana Chyketa · Answer

I have. But sometimes I'm too tired to do things that I'd like to do after work. So yeah, need a better time-management

Connor Van Ooyen · Answer

I try to be intentional about having specific plans to do something about once a week so I can still spend time with friends (been golfing on Saturday mornings until the weather gets too bad). But during the week I am pretty much just working

Kajal Morker · Answer

I have, but still I want more hours in single day.

@anil_ceylan It makes things harder when you have to skip a meal :(

Doğu Gül · Answer

@kajal_morker Haha right 24 hours in a day is not enough

Doğu Gül · Answer

@connorvo I think it is important to find some time for social activities at least one day a week to forget tasks about work.

Nadir Arda Oral · Answer

I usually have time and can do the activities I want, but the job is always on my mind, and after a while, I become addicted to work. 😕

I think I should switch to hourly planning rather than daily planning and take time for myself 🫠

Jade Mackenzie · Answer

I certainly do these days - but it's because I've reached the point of burn out before and never want to be there again. Now, in my current role, I'm fiercely protective of my time, wellbeing and work / life balance because I know that, ultimately, it makes me a better leader and more productive, impactful & valuable asset to the business I work in.

Csaba Zajdo · Answer

Yes. I do have time for myself. I have time to read, swim, travel, watch movies, play badminton. I also meet my friends and hang out. This is my life.

Ahmet Umut Günbak · Answer

@dogu_gul1 Time management tools really help :)

Nancy Talton · Answer

Yes. I do have time for myself.

Ez-ish · Answer

I'd say it covers the whole day. As a person who plans out my day, planning out my work hours are also part of the prep time. There are days however that I'm able to go out like going to amusement park for 3 hours before starting work lol
