1. I do unpleasant things as fast and effectively as possible, so I can procrastinate later.
2. I only use the Get Things Done method when I'm really stressed, so I can suddenly benefit from its effects.
3. I don't work at all after a certain time of day / switch off entirely at the weekends.
4. I avoid problematic people like e.g. hidden narcissists or psychopaths like the plague. If I have to interact with them, I'll keep it as professional as possible and ignore their rants as best as I can. (There is a life outside work.)
Obviously, these tricks only work if you can 'afford' them.
