""It's critical that you start your recovery as soon as you can," says lead author Ryan Grant, an assistant professor of psychological science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte."
""On days when workload is higher, people are about 79% more likely to delay their recovery later into the evening," he says."
""On days when people felt more accomplished at work, they were about 56% more likely to recover earlier in the evening.""
Research indicates that mentally detaching from work in the evening enhances next-day performance. Early recovery leads to increased energy and reduced fatigue. Participants who logged their evening activities showed that higher workloads delayed recovery, while feelings of accomplishment promoted earlier detachment. The study emphasizes the importance of starting recovery promptly to improve work-goal achievement the following day.
