Thank you for this. I'm teaching a completely new course this semester and I'm expecting a baby early September (and I have a 17 month old girl) so you can imagine I'm looking for anything that can make the semester a bit easier to bear. Loved your payoff grading system, by the way. In general, I think booking time in advance and just saying no to the things I definitely don't find meaningful will be my main change of mindset this year.
