I’m trying to build a side project in the evenings after work but have a pre school kid and a baby - feels impossible, anyone else attempted this? Feels not worth trying right now

I’m right there with you — big ideas and a 4 year old and 2 year old. No advice, just solidarity

Ha good to know I’m not alone, hard work with 2 of them needing all your time and energy! I’ll plod along at my own pace and try to not worry about producing fast!

I try not to think about what I produced, but about how much satisfaction I got out of the time spent. Sometimes that means going to my desk after bedtime routine, sometimes that means going to bed early after a day of fulfilling/exhausting parenting.

Good tactic, I’ll take that on board, I did have some dedicated time, post bedtime but sometimes it’s just like; nopeeee no way I’m opening the laptop, I’m just gonna sit down and do nothing – which is needed.
