I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

Working in IT and especially security IT, there are long hours and long days. Some times even weeks. The IT teams having to respond to the recent Solarwinds news is an example. They’re not having a good week. The thing that always comforted me in these scenarios is that at some point I would be going home and getting in bed for a good sleep. There would be an end at some point. Now was not the time to let exhaustion or despair impact what I was trying to do. The sooner I worked through the problem and got everything to a certain point the sooner I could go home and get in bed.
