Lately most days I just simply can't be bothered to work past 6pm. My client work gets done, but I think I'm probably putting in less BD work than my peers and I can't find the motivation to pick up my own slack. How do you push past the apathy especially with WFH to get more done than what's explicitly required of you?

Not sure if this is possible for you but I get all my internal work done early in the morning. That stuff is mind numbing and I can’t possibly do it after a full day of client work.

I mean, I'm more trying NOT to fuck up my reputation by doing less than everyone else. I don't want to do more, but I'm afraid not doing more will eventually hurt me.

I’m often tired at the end of the day as well and find it so easy to flit away the evening doing low value stuff. I found having “one big task” to do helps a lot. Blanking a deck, writing a scope, etc. if I only have one important thing to do that night I usually get it done.
