| Reading the comments I have to consider myself very lucky in a way. I work full-remote. - I never use an alarm, normally waking up around 8:30am - I often start coding right away when I wake up, in these first 2 hours I am often exceptionally productive - eat something, coffee, reading, relaxing - do some more coding till I feel my focus drops - repeat the last two steps When I feel tired I try not to code if possible, I consider it being a bad habit. Relaxing between the focussed coding sessions is of major importance to produce good code IMHO, while relaxing I'm often thinking about the different options of how I can best write the next piece of code. If I have a bad day, not being really productive, I often do some more coding at night if I can get the right focus. On a good day I outperform 2 coders that work in the open office of our company, with ease. |
I'm considering to switch to working 10 billable hours each day on Tue-Thu, though. I'm usually too exhausted after a working day to socialise, but not too tired to work. A 30h work-week with four days of weekend sounds pretty tempting.
