It seems a simplistic answer but... hard physical work does wonders. Workout is OK but cutting woods, moving earth, building wooden things really put mind to peace. Maybe our wonderful tech work is just the new version of the boring secretary job in old movies. We need to run, sweat, build. I wrote the best pieces of code and engineered long lasting architectures after such activities.

Yeah, for some time I was constantly tired from sitting almost all day in front of computer for several days. After a heavy session of snow removal I felt much more happy and energetic. To think that as a kid I hated it.
