Optimize the shortcuts for your life
Many developers I’ve met love optimizing their workflow. So do I.
It just feels great to discover an efficient approach to a problem you’ve been faced with daily for a long time.
To find that new shortcut that now saves you 3 clicks and moving your arm to that mouse and back to the keyboard.
To stay in that flow, unleash your inner power-nerd to keep going at that keyboard and see the solution unfold in front of your eyes.

To all software developers who don’t occasionally take the step back, give it a shot!
Lean back a bit, take a wider perspective on how you’re working.
See yourself working at the problem and notice some annoyances or inefficiencies.
See if you can optimize your shortcuts, settings or tooling to enhance your workflow.
It’s not about working faster, it’s about fine-tuning your craft and setting up your working environment and style so that it’s as enjoyable as it can be for you!
And once again, the lessons from engineering are applicable everywhere!
How often do we keep on keeping on in our lives, when what we need most is to take a step back.
To see ourselves doing the things we’re doing and questioning:
- Does this still make sense?
- Am I going about this the right way?
- Is there a different approach?
- Is there something new I can try that would make this more enjoyable?
- Is this still important?
Software engineering as the teacher for life… I love it!
