Random Thought: Activation Energy

· From the 2010–2013 blog

There seems to be a lot of activation energy to my writing. Whenever I'm in the zone and writing daily its great, my thoughts are clearer, I'm more productive despite spending time writing, and I have good focus on my priorities. But whenever I get into a coding zone, writing seems less important. It cost me so much more to switch gears into email, or phone calls, or writing. If I had to guess I'd say this is the same thing Stevie experiences whenever I call him and ruin his train of thought. Its also probably related to flow, but in this case I'm concerned about the tear-down time to leaving flow. In other news we missed our Alpha launch last Friday, but we are hot on the trail and should start deployment again on Wednesday. So much glue, so little time!
