<h2>Where Did Time Go?</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I keep trying to get to work on personal projects.
|
||||
Expanding this website, making some new ones for a business and some utility things.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I am also trying to stay healthy and get better at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
|
||||
Sleep enough.
|
||||
Spend time with my Fiance.
|
||||
Learn Japanese.
|
||||
Keep journaling.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I don't know if I am crazy but I feel like life should have time for things like this.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If I am up early enough to spend time building stuff I inevitably get frustrated when I have to stop and get to work.
|
||||
It takes time to get into the flow of building something new and getting a couple of hours (or even an hour) on a weekday is hard.
|
||||
So I wind up working on it on the weekends and just trying to capture ideas that I have throughout the week.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Obviously to me the time is going to work.
|
||||
Very often over the last few months I am spending time outside of regular work hours on work.
|
||||
We are trying to finish off a big project.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
In the past most of the jobs that I have worked are physical.
|
||||
Coaching gymnastics, fixing hot tubs, sauna construction.
|
||||
They all require you to be there in person and therefore are not something that you can just casually log on outside of your normal hours.
|
||||
Software development is so much different.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
There is this weird feeling of guilt when spending time coding my own stuff.
|
||||
There is always more work to do at work with most jobs.
|
||||
But software feels different in that this is also something that I like to do on my own time as well.
|
||||
With project deadlines looming and the simplicity of logging onto my work computer instead of my own to do broadly the same thing I feel bad when I spend my own coding time on my own projects.
|
||||
Writing that out sounds insane but it is the case a lot of the time.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Working from home a couple days a week also does not help.
|
||||
My desk is no longer my workshop, but partially an extension of my desk at work.
|
||||
Being able to work remotely feels like a gift.
|
||||
And for a lot of reasons it is.
|
||||
I can do laundry or cook meals during breaks, less commuting.
|
||||
However it really does make the lines blur between work and not, especially when I am wanting to code in my free time.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I think the answer is to treat this job as a physical one.
|
||||
Get a locker, leave my computer there.
|
||||
I wouldn't be able to work from home during regular work time anymore.
|
||||
That also means that I can't work outside of work time.
|
||||
I need that sharp delineation between work and the rest of my life.
|
||||
It just bleeds over too easily for me.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Which brings me to my more general thoughts that everything that we do has a cost associated with the benefit that it brings.
|
||||
We often get excited about the benefits and forget to take the cost into account.
|
||||
Working from home, adopting a new software tool, etc.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
I am more and more often finding that the costs are not worth it.
|
||||
It has taken me 2 years to get to this realization with working from home in particular.
|
||||
I think the benefits were front loaded with realizing that I could get things done during work breaks.
|
||||
The costs however were slowly training me over time to see my home desk as a workspace and for my mind to associate the two.
|
||||
And it isn't worth it so I am going to try without and see how that goes.
