Tips to overcome work-related overthinking?

I’ve been more and more stressed out about work during weekends; I tend to think a lot about the things I couldn’t finish this week and how to tackle them in the upcoming week. I’ve been getting obsessed to the point I really don’t enjoy weekends and I can’t relax.

It would be unfair to blame external pressures, it is just me overthinking.

What are your strategies to avoid this?

    Everything goes into my calendar or a ticket.

    I block a 15 minute meeting for myself every morning, and 2-3 hours every afternoon.

    I arrive Monday knowing that past “me” organized, assigned, and scheduled everything I need to do.

    I leave Friday knowing that schmuck future “me” has a lot to do, and it’s not my problem now.
