Hi Dzhavat! I appreciate your post. I've realized that I find myself enjoying singing, dancing, playing drums and arcade games outside work. I think arcade gaming is starting to be my weekly habit every weekend. I also enjoy occasional travels. Haven't tried yet committing to a fitness routine but looking forward to it soon. Thanks for the insights.

Thanks for sharing your comment! If you enjoy doing something outside of work, then continue doing it! That's the best thing you can do for yourself. And don't regret it or wish you were doing something else instead.

There are so many things going on in the development world that we're constantly trying to catch up and thus this feeling of FOMO. The tutorials/courses/Twitter can wait until you finish your song, dance, game or whatever. :)
