Evening Shutdown

Close the day without it following you to bed.

What this helps with

Evening Shutdown is a short way to wind the day down so unfinished thoughts don't keep running after you stop working.

Quick start

Try this now

Write down the one thing you'd like to remember or finish tomorrow, then close your work for the day — no more checking.

Why this may help

Naming an unfinished thought before stopping can help prevent it from looping through your mind later.

Apply to real life
