My work life balance is so much worse since I moved to Tokyo. Everybody’s busy. I spend hours commuting. Everything involves alcohol.
I used to have a few nights per week where I just chill alone at home or meet friends spontaneously. Now I feel like if I want to have a beer with a friend, it won’t happen unless we schedule it three weeks in advance. I barely ever have time to watch a movie.
A friend said Tokyo’s all about “ichigyo-zammai” – giving your all to one thing at a time. It’s like a zen focus hack that strangely makes you more productive. Anyone tried that?
