Sounds like a summary of my career achievements
This comment. I feel you.
So true 😂
@serhiiilin great
Great article!
I would like to add, there might also be an opposite occasion to sticking to single stack: trying to embrace too many different things, dispersing and distracting yourself, and as a result - spent so much time, but nothing you’re really adept at…
Absolutely, great point! It's a fine line between specialization and spreading too thin. Striking that balance is key for meaningful progress. Thanks for adding that perspective.
You could write a whole article on work-life balance and mental health of developers. My brain thinks if we did not try to please the industry so much we would probably be happier. What happened to good old spaghetti code and not caring what the client thinks?
Great post! Perfectionism is, at least in my mind, such a time killer. At least to me, I've wasted so much time trying to find "the absolute best" solutions to some problems that I would have had a working product if I had just gotten to work on "good enough".
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
My life
Good post !
Thank you! I'm glad you found the article helpful.
How many courses are there to improve soft skills and communication if you are an introvert who doesn't like getting out of home?

Thank you, Bartek.
I agree with this article Even though I still can't overcome some of them.
good...
I doubt that procrastination is a result of bad time management, like you might suggest in the first paragraph, but rather about a lot of reasons mentioned later on that make us want to procrastinate in the first place, like fearing failure, tedious tasks, or inconvenient challenges. Thanks for putting together such a lot of helpful advice!
Loving this post! The tasks and workflow of developers bring many rewards, but they can make it easy to fall into the habits you mentioned. And they are definitely related to one another...if you prioritize work-life balance, you'll know you have to take advantage of the time you do dedicate to work. That means less procrastinating. Also, improving your soft skills, communication and collaboration can be learned outside of work, in day-to-day activities, making that work-live balance even more relevant.
This post is not limited to developers only.
It includes concepts that are repeatedly mentioned in various self-improvement books.
Good job on this post, Thomas! I'd like to share a habit that can significantly improve communication skills. Try meeting strangers frequently and smiling. I know it doesn't sound like a game-changer, but it truly is. It helps you step out of your comfort zone.
