You’re a lawyer though, right? So set up in a work environment designed to solve for high output/utilization. In some ways that’s easier than a lower duty cycle in a less structured environment.

When I was young and naive, I did a couple hard two weeks on stints that produced work I’m very proud of but left me real drained. Doing that now would be harder

I try to do one calendar-worthy achievement per day (ex. something worth saying, “on Aug 31 I created a great illustration”) If it happens at 9 AM I take the rest of the day in neutral. If it never happens I burn out and need a day to recuperate.
