Great accountability question. Now I feel guilty because this was consumed by my full time work and I need to grind this weekend. How about you?

@slimmy82 Oh, it's the same for me. Sometimes it takes more than 12 hours a day, but I am trying to find a good work-life balance.
@julia_demyanchuk so are you doing your project full time or you have full time work and working part time on it? Definitely need to have work life balance.

@slimmy82 I have a full time job + project, yes

3 hours a day. There are always off days where I don't get even a few minutes on it.

On average, I'd say I clock in around 8 to 10 hours a day. Some days, I lose track of time entirely because I'm so engrossed in the thrill of design and innovation.

Well @julia_demyanchuk , it goes like this: The days when its easy - 8-10 hrs and I get anxious I have worked less today :( Then there are days, when things are tough - easily 14-16 hrs. Puts a smile on your face at the end of the day when the problems are resolved and you sleep much better. Not counting hrs but what you solve for matters the most when you run a startup.

It really depends on the day and the tasks at hand. Some days I may spend 8-10 hours working on my startup, while other days it may be closer to 4-6 hours. It's all about finding a balance and making progress towards my goals. By the way, I'm planning to launch my product soon. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

@cen_xu and good luck with the launch! As for me, I try to find the balance right now too, because somedays my work takes more than 13-14 hours...
