David Heinemeier Hansson

Early mornings are spent getting kids to school. I usually sit down to work around 8:30. Then it's typically an hour or so catching up on emails, reports, whatever. Then the very best days are entirely free from there to dive into interesting, challenging projects, preferably programming or writing.

I've been working remotely for twenty years, and the benefits remain the same for me. The freedom to live wherever, to work from a home office that provides complete calm for focus, and to enjoy the flexibility of being literally next door to the family during the day. Wouldn't trade it for anything.

I try to work in seasons. Some seasons are dedicated to programming others to writing and others still to working on the business itself. Multitasking is a mirage. All humans can do is thrash. So keeping just one main project on the plate at the time is the key to going quickly.
