Super Powers

I didn't want to get up this morning, least of all to work on something before work. Yet, I dragged myself out of bed, or rather rolled out of my sleeping bag and stood up after fiddling with my alarm to stop it (and then rebooting my phone as I have to do after the alarm goes off). That was 6:30, I stepped into the shower at 6:45, and didn't actually sit down in front of my computer until past 7. I stopped working at 8:15 and therefore only got in about an hour. Somewhat surprising ... I actually got some shit done.

It's not terribly much, it never is, but it's more than nothing and it's certainly decent for a mere hour's worth. There's no secret, just sitting down and setting aside the time every day. I skipped out on doing anything this weekend, though, and that's a bit regretful but the other side of this is I'm not sure that programming is even my soulful vocation ... and I am still able to make progress. It's like, dare I say, discovering a super power and now wondering how to use it for good.
