the next loop

Published on January 28, 2025

I haven’t written here because I spent the last three weeks in a “sprint” working on an interesting app. It was a cool experience with plenty of valuable lessons. I also worked long hours every day, so the little free time I had was spent working out and spending time with people I enjoy being around.

I realized that I tend to put in a lot of effort when I’m working on an exciting project. There were days when it felt like, after finishing my “day job,” I was diving into a fun side project.

It definitely wore me down a bit, and I noticed feeling more tired than usual. So, after three weeks, I decided not to extend the sprint.

Now I’m back to building my own projects and writing on this blog. Overall, this side quest was a lot of fun, and I’d love to do something similar in the future.
