[quote=Anonymous]I rarely work weekends except during super busy times (i.e. trials or major filings, I'm a litigator) but to sustain that I often have to log back on for a little while after bedtime or get up super early to get a few hours in before the kids wake up. If it's not urgent stuff, try giving yourself a designated long day or two where you either just work through dinner or log back on for 3 or 4 hours and do a late night. Also, think about whether there are other ways to demonstrate your value beyond just billables and if there are, put your energy into standing out there. You're just not going to win the billable hour war AND do all the family stuff you want to do without sacrificing something else (like your sleep, workouts, and social life). And yeah, it gets harder when there are activities, multiple kids, etc. At least for a while.[/quote]
