Saw a thread on another site re: long hours being required to build great things (the thread). IMO It’s not about the hours, but quality of output & honoring your team’s most productive “rhythm”.

I’m also a recovering night owl; I used to reach creative flow late at night when there’s less “noise.” I’ve worked long stretches when I’m in a creative flow … that can be rewarding. But I also require an adequate recharge period (most people do).

I would never want to lead or work in an environment that didn’t balance work sprints with periods of rest & recharge. Burnout is a real.
