Out running.

Today I went out early in the morning for a run. Now it is 9:30am and I am filled with energy and enthusiasm. In fact I just went down stairs and was tempted to lift some weight (which I haven't touched in a while). But this is a common pattern in my life and many developers life too. We get so excited and energized when we solve one problem. But then that excitement leads to more work. Which eventually leads to burnout. And then remorse. Managing mine and my team's energy level and time is much more crusial than solving a technical problem.
