  1. I’ve really struggled with burnout over the last 18 months and I can tell you now: I think I’m over the peak. At least half of my 12 ish year career in tech has been battling burnout in some form. It’s horrendous. A piece of advice is don’t be like me: tackle it head-on. 1/2

      I’ve set some very strict rules for myself. For context, I’m CIS white male who works for himself. 1) This twitter account is a work account and is not to be checked when I’m not working 2) Absolutely no evening work unless it’s freeing up other time 3) Max 8 hours work a day

        It sounds silly but grafting hard has undoubtedly put me in a good place but it’s eroded my identity. I’m not into nerdy code shit: I just like making cool shit. Getting back into music, playing sports (football and golf) and getting away from screens has been the big difference
