In March, I experimented with cutting my work hours by 17% to see how it would affect my
41 and well-being.
For two weeks, 42 working from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and reading a work-related book during lunch, I worked from 9 a.m. to 5p.m. and took a half-hour lunch 43 .
Parts of my experience were 44 — for example, I felt quite rushed during the first few days of the 45 . Other parts were less expected — like the fact that I was just as productive as before. But the most surprising finding is that I 46 spending more money.
On a (n) 47 workday, I dine on something particular, like a peanut butter and banana sandwich, while 48 in the Business Insider Kitchen. But during the first week of the experiment, I was so excited about the 49 that I wandered happily to the local food shop and 50 a sandwich that I ate while sitting in Madison Square Park. When I left work early, and 51 when I was killing time before plans with friends later in the evening, I 52 myself with tea and magazines.
So if you do decide to 53 your work hours, it’s probably wise to plan some 54 in advance — like visiting a 55 or a free museum that’s open during lunch or in the evenings, depending on your personality, 56 could potentially be even more meaningful than 57 at a coffee shop.
I should decide at some 58 in the future to go back to a(n) 59 workweek because that benefits me so much, and it’s certainly 60 I’ll keep in mind.
