Hi, I work with a few developers and designers under the name of Whitesmith - we develop full web and mobile products. From the depths of DevOps and Internet of Things, to Web & Mobile apps, we converge into solving real problems with great user experience.

Some clients call us their Secret Weapon, because they can throw us any problem/challenge/business case, and we will make sure to find a solution for it. I hope that's valuable for you too.

Cheers, Daniel

I use a page on a tool like OneNote or Evernote to write every day the notes that pop up on my head, or interesting information I read. Then, during 1hour of the weekend, I grab that page and a) trash the info that actually doesn't matter b) save the info that I think it's useful, in a certain section (Startup ideas; Biz Dev strategies; etc)

I also use Pocket to save articles to read later, but overtime I became more agressive in filtering what to read. If I don't feel to read it, I just trash it. Now it's kind of a habit. (I still do have articles saved in Pocket from several weeks before. But they are MUCH less.)

With my blogpost, I didn't mean that you should put work before your family and friends (or at least didn't want to mean that). I didn't mean that playing a good videogame is a waste of time if that makes you feel better.

I try to always be aware when I'm not giving enough time to my family and friends (building relationships). Some times I do stuff like, taking a random trip to somewhere in the woods just to see what happens or what nature has to show me, without any goal in mind.

BUT, I do understand that you think that I don't do this. I understand why with this post I seem such a workaholic. (Maybe I am, but not as much I seem to look in this post.)

AND, even though I spend a good time with my family and friends, I'm not saying that I shouldn't spend more. Maybe I should. (I'm just thinking out loud.)

My point here is that we should strive to try to work on something that's aligned with our life goals - and those may include spending time with your family, traveling or building a charity institution. This way, work would have other meaning to us.

Thank you very much for the article and your thoughtful response.

Thank you both for the responses. It was my intention to hear the opinion of the HN community. But, may you agree or not with my post, I believe a good discussion should always be about giving some constructive feedback in a friendly tone.

Thanks CJefferson for clarifying your response. Thanks 3am for the giving the heads up. Sincerely.

You said it well:

"What I cited there are not "work" per say as coined in most people's mind as the dreary 8 hour work life."

And yes, I understand your point: work can be enjoyed to the point it feels like a videogame!

Anyhow, the words and the tone I choose maybe weren't the best to communicate what I mean.

Thanks for the feedback (and thanks for subscribing!).
