Like with every job, we need some time off the job and I think we often don't consider Hive as a job. I'm convinced that making sure every day that we have time off screen is very important for our long term motivation.
I can’t agree more. That's why I'm talking about looking for balance, because I wouldn't want to end up burned and I know that the best strategy is to establish that daily time away from the screen like you suggest. I prefer to dedicate a little to it every day instead of alternating intensive periods with others of zero contact. It’s more manageable and motivating.
