Yesssss!!!! I am trying it right away. I also think for many here, timing is important to set limits. Like cap your work week at 50 or at most 60 hours (or less if you have caretaking responsibilities). That way you don’t let guilt push you into unhealthy territory. That’s how I use timers. Also great for parents that are both ambitious to make sure one does not get a career advantage by feeling more nervous or something.
Yes fully agree that capping is important. I’d probably cap it much lower (I guess I average about 20-30h/week of actual work on DoneThat). I like this post where people share how many hours they work https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/byMQvEHWur23bLpQw/how-much-do-you-actually-work#GBXjoJZudHpLh72Mg. Anecdotally I also talked with somebody who tracked productive hours in a high-paid US tech job, averaged about 4h/d and got promoted with that.
