I should actually be working 8h a day, but most of it is spend not working. If I'm honest I'm probably working more like 3h a day even though I enjoy my job.

The biggest lesson I learned is to take control of my time and decide how to spend it. An 8-hour workday in a vacuum mostly gets filled with questionable tasks, it's almost like a theater filled with actors going through the motions of work, without really doing any. Life isn't too short by itself, but activities like that make it too short.

It's not something I can do for another person. You'll have to adopt yourself.
