What are your worst habits as a developer?

  • I spend too much time up front optimizing my unfinished code instead of getting it to work first and seeing if the optimizations even would've mattered.

What are your best habit building and productivity hacks?

  • Out of sight, out of mind, right? So when I DON'T want to work on something, I place it inside the top drawer of my dresser. Whatever IS my goal for the week, e.g. reading a book, I leave it on TOP of the dresser. I use my dresser as the focal point of goals. Why? Because I can hide things inside and place things on top...and it's right by my bed :)
