Pack your bag, your files, charge up your phone, leave by the front door.

LIMIT SOCIAL MEDIA AND HIT UNSUBSCRIBE – Monitor how much time you spend regularly checking your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Linkedin accounts. This is a complete time drain. Set a timer twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Make a conscious effort to unsubscribe to as many emails as possible.
