Chinh (lelouvincx) / Down The Rabbit Hole

I realize when doing a task, I often become too over-engineer, lag, time-consuming and not focusing into the main task.

This happens very often.

Symtomps

• Over-engineering: Spending hours writing perfect things that could have been a simpler one.

• Yak shaving: When I want to fix a dashboard, but first I decide to update my dotfiles configuration, which leads to debugging neovim issue, and suddenly 3 hours have passed without touching the dashboard.

• “Just one more small fix”.
