Thanks for your article, Davide. I am fond of your approach.

I still read, listen to people who complain about boredom, etc. With kids at home, you have less time than otherwise. But even they (2 and 4 years old) are less interrupting than the constantly chatting/passing by people of an open office.

Also, I think these are very good moments to start reading about/practicing Stoicism. There is no event out there that is stressful. Our reaction can be stress, but that's something in our control - with practice. I don't say it's easy, but it's not rocket science either.

thanks for the wise and calm words.
yes, it is indeed hard sometimes. but we all need some discipline and to put some effort into what we do or want to do. I also listen and try to understand other people feelings and struggles , but often it makes me so mad - i still probably have to learn to articulate my thoughts in a more proactive way for the reader (i guess my Italian blood takes over here.. :-) )
