What I've been doing lately is forcing myself to slow down my type A tendencies by taking scheduled breaks throughout the day. I also tend to wake up with the engine raring to go and fly through all of the healthy things I "should" be doing, and then once it's all done it's like, so, ummm....now what? Haha.
What I've been doing is breaking my day up into chunks of "productive" activity interspersed with planned things that are sometimes downright silly. Not even altruistic volunteering! Like, I'm going to have lunch by myself at that place I've always been wanting to try. Or, I'm going to go to a film during the middle of the day.
Front-loading the day was burning me out until the evenings were unbearable. By breaking it up a bit, it's really helped! Just a thought.
