I am deputed at the client office. I use PSL laptop only to check mails. But in my last appraisal my manager told me that I need to get 60 credit points for promotion. But due to client work load, i won't be able to do that. So, I have resigned from PSL mentioning the same that promotion will not happen.
But my manager told me that he will try to give me a promotion in next cycle (ignoring the credit points clause). He is asking me to withdraw resign
Shall I withdraw my resign? Persistent

I’m in the same boat. The best I’ve been able to do is to block time on my calendar each day so I have time to focus on work.
Yep. I ditched the to do list and started just blocking chunks of time ‘review deck’ gets 15 mins but ‘solve x problem’ gets an hour of mental space. I just follow what’s in my calendar, works really well for me.

Also practice saying no. If you aren’t critically needed in a meeting, decline and focus on your work. If you are at capacity and another request comes in, ask for the timeline and if it is unreasonable given your other work, say no or ask for the other work to be shifted. It’s super uncomfortable at first because we are all overachievers and the culture is that it’s always “yes”. But it gets easier and then you realize how powerful it is to take control of your time. Enlist the PM to help you balance or reprioritize requests. Block time for work and stick to it. As for winding down— get out of the house for a walk/run/bike. Do some yoga (yesterday was a tough one and I went for a 3.5 mile walk and then did some easy yoga before bed). Hang in there!
