How many hours a day do you actually work?

I should actually be working 8h a day, but most of it is spend not working. If I'm honest I'm probably working more like 3h a day even though I enjoy my job.

You get 2-3 hours of deep work time EVERY DAY? I'm lucky to get that once a week.

It's not that hard. I utilise Pomodoro techinque to set aside four 25m-40m sessions. Now it's just the matter of discipline. I block all distractions (emails, texting, entertainment, etc.) and coalesce them into a period of time.

I don't get that because I'm in a billion meetings, have to conduct interviews, help the more Jr folks on my team etc. It's not that I'm bad at time management
