By day I'm a Software Engineer, and by night, a side hustler. How many of you juggle full-time jobs with passion projects? Share your stories, tips, and tricks for managing both worlds.

I am the CEO/Co-Founder of FAM - Social Finance and a real estate agent. So my day is blended between both. Honestly, I find the constant switch-up to be nice; it keeps me fresh on whatever I'm working on that day.

@fam_socialfinance It's great that you like the context-switching. I also need to work on multiple things so I'm motivated. Wish you good luck with your launch :)

Full time Content Dev Team Lead for an internal enablement and education group in corp. Without side projects I'd go totally insane I think! One of my tricks is bringing the same discipline and accountability from my 9-5 to my own personal projects.

@jftucci "Without side projects I'd go totally insane I think!" -> I can totally relate to that. I agree that being disciplined in both work and your own project is crucial for success! Good luck with your launch, Fernando!
