Nah. I respect your point but I don’t agree. I sometimes have this urge to do some extra hours because what I do is super fun, challenging and I learn a lot. It feels like gaming or hobby projects at times.
But what I learned after decade and a half in my job is that 6 hours of such work is a hard limit. Later one starts to burn out quickly. It’s like going on turbo boost. Nice fly but fuel is going down pretty quickly.
My brain performance goes also down quickly in such a sprint so the outcome quality goes down as well without even me noticing.
8 hours. Then I go with my life doing something completely different. No matter how much fun I have at work.
