Zoning your life

Hard to do, but worth it.  Nicholas Bate offers the 7 Essential Zones:

Zone 1: your zone. Your time. To read, to cook, to think, to be. You decide. It keeps you sane.

 

Zone 2: you and your partner in life.  Time to talk, hold hands, walk by the river, go to rock ‘n roll dance class. It keeps you in love.

The rest, here.
