I just came to terms with the fact that not all days are going to be as productive as others. Like when you're sitting on hold for 30 minutes, because someone transferred you to the wrong number, while trying to order internet service. Not particularly productive. I just try to optimize my workflow for doing things. And I use that same ideology when writing applications. The more you have to interact with an application to do something, the more likely it is that you're going to hit a problem doing it, and lose time fiddling with things you probably shouldn't really have to fiddle with anyway. The more you can interact with the data instead of the application, the more productive you're going to be. I don’t try to be productive.

I dont meditate, so a brisk morning and evening walk is the right recipe. I used have to bike 14k to work which had a great effect on the day. Since I work from home, I find I still have to walk or bike a bit to start the day properly. Walk or meditate.
