sceners with a full-time job (especially programmers), how do you do it?

category: general [glöplog]
Uhm,. the text is too big :(

..and I think the question is still a bit different. Having deadline, having to release, effects being already ready, but to connect them is unmotivating? Or maybe it's both the psychological effect of pressure and a lot of other things together?

I wish you good luck and at least the feeling of pressure will be gone away after the deadline..

i've found some of my old 'hey this is fun' vibe back. just by forcing myself to sit down and get work done.. hm, that's good.

Yes, sometimes the motto my mother says "beginning is the half of the job" really works well. Seconds before sitting down and coding, it feels awful even thinking about it, but as you start everything flows well.

Another problem with this though, is when I finally am aware of this technique and why it works, and something press me against using it because I knows that it's like deceiving myself to try start coding for 5 minutes in order to really work for 5 hours. Krazy!

But don't listen to me :)

Tried to get up early all week. Only succeeded one day, but was almost too tired to code. Still got a little coding done, so it might be a good idea if it works though.

Wish I could do with Skate's 2 hours of sleep. I heard you need less as you get older, but at 33 I still need 7-8 hours, so it doesn't hold up for me at all.
