  • May I ask why? This coming from the guy that has to facilitate them.

    I’m especially curious about the stand-ups, since I have mixed feelings about retrospectives myself, they have their place and I think they play a part in a team’s growth, but at the same time I’d rather just cancel them if I don’t feel we’d get anything useful out of it and I don’t want to hold a retro just because the process says so.

    LE: Gonna just edit this to say thank you to the people who replied, gave me some new perspectives to think about.






  • Started hitting the gym for about 4 months now, what has helped me a lot is getting a personal trainer, he helps me push past the last 5%, and it gives me someone to talk to between reps. And while I don’t necessarily get pleasure in the moment while lifting weights, I do get it afterwards, when feeling my muscles burn. And it does wonders for my energy levels and my general mood.

    I also started running a month ago, I promised someone I will participate in a 10k in October with them. This is definitely more on the “existence is pain” side, but while doing it I try to focus more on my form and breathing, and less on how it makes me feel.
