Yes, 100% completely. Once I had my kids, I was never as productive as I was pre-kids.
But it was completely worth it.
But it was completely worth it.
My perspective on life completely changed.
I am not even sure i was more productive. I certainly had more me time, coding, reading, working out. But time with my kids is beyond rewarding. I still need an income, but my image, ego, and self worth is not attached to my job or validation from my peers....now its attached to my 2 year olds whims and my ability to change a dirty diaper in 30 seconds. Flat.
