Anyone working in developer relations needs to be constantly learning about new technologies, trends, and the evolution of their ecosystem. Here is my approach!
This was a really nice read. I liked how you structured all the phases. One thing I have learnt particularly well through Cal Newport's "deep stack", especially on systems, is that it has to start with discipline. Building a calendar system can be awesome until you realize sticking to it even if you miss a day or a week is a whole world of effort.
Many thanks for the feedback, Stephen! I don't think I had bumped into Cal's "deep stack" idea before, but I loved his Deep Work book when I read it many years ago -- I'll be sure to check this out in more detail (reference I found for others also interested: https://lanredahunsi.com/the-deep-life-stack-cal-newport/)
I've learned a lot about discipline from the military books/biographies I've read (like Extreme Ownership and Turn the Ship Around), and it finally clicked a few years ago -- it really is a powerful mechanism when harnessed well!
Hi Daniel,

Thanks again for the refresher 🙏🏽.
