Quote from Designing Data-Intensive Applications book: "Conversely, reducing complexity greatly improves the maintainability of software, and thus simplicity should be a key goal for the systems we build."

Quote from Jim Kwik's Limitless: "If you’re working on your computer, shut down every application and every open tab other than the ones you absolutely need to perform the task at hand."

Quote from Clean Architecture book: "It is far more common to fight your way through terrible software designs than it is to enjoy the pleasure of working with a good one."

Of all the unprofessional behaviors that a programmer can indulge in, perhaps the worst of all is saying you are done when you know you aren’t. Sometimes this is just an overt lie, and that’s bad enough. But the far more insidious case is when we manage to rationalize a new definition of “done.” We convince ourselves that we are done enough, and move on to the next task. We rationalize that any work that remains can be dealt with later when we have more time.
