The last few weeks I was frustrated about not being able to write any code for the project I am on at work. My days are filled with email, spreadsheets, documents, discussions and distractions. All important stuff, I’m sure, but none of it has got to do with actual coding.
I tried to write code during the evenings for that project, just to get my kicks. Two things happened:
- Frustration grew, because I feel that this is the kind of work I should be doing during the day.
- As I worked the late night hours, I realized I could never get it all done because the blocks of work were simply to large and required too much research to be done during a few evenings.
