Your focus could be placed more on your work than on relaxing, which may be due to your motivation to get everything done today. Having focus and being disciplined might be something you have discovered helps keep you going at work. Perhaps you can use your ability to concentrate to direct your attention to the tasks at work that you are inclined to put off. Before beginning work today, you might make a list of the things that you don't like doing and the reasons why you don't like them. You may want to think about the underlying fears you have surrounding those tasks. After considering this, you might imagine that these duties are already done. Feeling this sense of accomplishment beforehand could make it easier for you to set the intention to remain focused and finish everything.

Imagining the fruits of our labors before we begin our work gives us a mental picture that helps direct our attention and keep us motivated. During most of our day, there are always things we have to do that bring us down and cause us to lose focus. When we know that there is always an end to our tasks, however, we lessen our fears about the things we dislike doing and stay inspired, remembering the fact that our ability to stay on track can carry us through anything. By using your single-minded determination as an impetus today you will stay more deeply motivated and committed to your work.
