It's very beneficial to do something else that is not related with code or tech outside work, even if just enjoying your life.

Do not feel that you have to code 24 hours a day or learn everything that comes up, it's not possible.

Do you!

I totally agree, and most of what I do outside of work isn't directly work related (even though that's been very challenging during quarantine). The most fun I've had in a while is coming up with an idea and banging on the keyboard until it comes out haha.

However, that said. Code could help some of my non-work related projects.

I actually really enjoy coding outside of work - just having trouble even with ADHD meds getting properly focused to learn code related things I guess?
