Balance
Keeping the main channel full
The main channel is your job, your home and your health. Side work should only take what's spare.
Signs the channel is running low
- You're more tired at work than usual
- Small mistakes are creeping into your main job
- People at home mention you're not around
- You've stopped doing things you enjoy
What to do
Close the gate for a week or two. Finish what's promised, take nothing new, and see how you feel.
Protect the basics
Sleep, meals and at least one free evening a week come before any side job. They're what keep the main channel flowing.
