Help me build a realistic work-life balance plan for this week.

My work hours (actual, not ideal): [hours]
What's eating time outside of work that shouldn't be: [e.g. checking email at night, weekend work]
What I actually want more time for: [family / rest / a hobby / exercise]
My biggest obstacle to changing this: [be honest]

Give me: one clear work-hours boundary, a simple daily structure (not hour-by-hour, just anchors), and one specific way to address my biggest obstacle. Keep it realistic for someone running a business, not aspirational fluff.

Here's how the week actually went: [describe what worked and what didn't]. Adjust the plan for next week.

What you'll get

A realistic weekly structure with one real boundary and a plan for your actual obstacle — reusable every week.

If it's not quite right

• Feels too rigid? Add "Make this flexible, not a strict schedule."
• Business has unpredictable hours? Add "My schedule varies a lot — build in flexibility."
