That's great advice. When going back to work after a few months, I had to shelve so many projects. I had no energy for anything. Sometimes, I could do little more than cook dinner. That's as a single, childless person with a low stress job.

Let people relax. Stop appropriating every good thing and turning it into another competition.

This reminds me of a lovely article I've read recently: an app can be a home-cooked meal. In other words, you can create small scale, short-lived things for private consumption. It's a lot more relaxing.

I second a recommendation to that article: https://www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-cooked-app/
