I've automated large chunks of my life.

I have a JIRA for everything I do with customized workflows, and among many other projects I built this:

http://hnalert.tk

to mail me when subjects interesting to me come up on HN.

I recommend reading 'Getting Things Done' and working at your own pace. Focus on the things you're motivated to do, not what you think you should be doing - that's what a paid job is for!

I'm getting an internal server error when I try to set up an alert on http://hnalert.tk

Thanks, I did give some talks on it at my last corp, but it's so difficult to write about your own life.

I do blog on technical stuff here:
