Ask HN: What do you think about personal development and tech?
1 point by daryllxd on March 7, 2018 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
Hi all. I've been reading and applying a bunch of stuff from personal development/self-improvement lately. Honestly, at first I thought it was lame but I've gotten real productive lately. Things like scheduling the night before, journaling, exercise, setting goals for myself, doing things out of my comfort zone, etc. It's basically changed my life.

Any other devs feel this way? Do you guys do self-improvement things too? I'm thinking of making a site or a blog or whatever medium works because I suffered from lack of motivation, depression, etc in some of my years as a dev. Something like good programmer habits or things we can take from other fields, not just personal development.




I'm also a big believer of self-development strategies / tricks. However, I don't think it's necessarily the acts themselves that are so life changing but rather the mindset that you're going to do whatever it takes to be better is what's so powerful.
