Do you work on the weekends?

I'll usually work weekends if I felt like I didn't do enough during the week.

24h/7d

I try not to. Everybody deserves a rest :)

Hi Richard! It's important to start a fresh day. I have a routine every morning, including weekends. It's a simple routine in my case of washing my face, brushing my teeth, changing clothes, checking my Profit&Loss, and logging to the makers community.

My work is my passion, so sometimes it's hard to turn the computer off and go outside ;) Now I finished a new movie for my mobile game: And it's 1:21AM... GOD... :D Time to go sleep.

For my day job, I never work on weekends. If I’m not the one running the company, I can’t justify spending my spare time on it no matter how much I like my employers. For my side projects and my own companies, though, I absolutely work weekends. But even then, I try to keep it to just a few hours each weekend.

According to Cal Newports books, you really shouldn't work on the weekends as your brain needs to recuperate and recharge. However, when running a startup I personally have a lingering anxiety that I'm not doing what matters and I struggle to enjoy or concentrate on other things.

As a side project entrepreneur, the weekends are necessary for building products. Still, I find it easier to get the momentum during regular workdays.

I work only on Saturdays, the reason is that it enables me to conclude all the work of the week and submit the report to my boss.

I like doing side projects on the weekends. Especially with being stuck home from the pandemic, building something helps stave off the boredom.
