I have exercise times set up in my calendar (Monday, Wednesday, Friday). I also play music, spend time with my partner and see friends to relax.
I live with a sleep disorder, Delayed-Sleep Phase Disorder, which makes me go to be really late (2/3 am), so usually at night, from 11 pm to 3 am I can really get in the zone on my tasks.
Usually around 7 hours, sometimes a bit less if I have an early appointment. Because of my sleep disorder, I don't work the typical 9 to 5. I usually start my day job around 12 pm, take a break around 5 pm, then work a bit more from 9 pm to 11 pm, then switch to my side projects.
One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
That sounds good. I struggle to structure my work week. The freedom that I can do anything at anytime is great but frightening at the same time. Apparently you have found something that works for you. But how did you get there?

A good prioritization system and following my inspiration. If you have some flexibility on your hours, I would highly recommend following your inspiration, works amazing for me! :)
Hey Jean-Michel!
Not knowing how to spend your time can indeed be overwhelming and frightening. A good starting point is making a list of all projects or activities that you'd like to spend your time on and once you have them all start trimming the list until you get about 3 items. What's the hard part about structuring your work week?
