- I've got a routine. Right now all my time is being spent helping people with urgent matters, but the thing is, most of them are not actually urgent.#
- This week is unusual. Next week I'd like to spend most of my working time fixing problems and moving forward with the software. #
- What can't change is the amount of time I work each day. I used to be willing to push it way too far, and that got me sick. I just can't do that anymore.#
- So try to be aware of that, right now I am the support for this product. No one else can do it. People are trying to pitch in and that's much appreciated.#
- It's got to settle down, a bunch. If you feel exhausted and upset, then slow down, take a breath, we tend to get very urgent as we do our web thing. That's not a way to relate in a community like this. Go for a walk or a whatever you to do to relax, then take another look at the problem. It often happens that by the time you get back you've figured out what the problem is. If not, then carefully write up what you did, what you expected to happen, etc. #
