Atrophy

2023-11-18 Saturday

Not working on your craft, whether it's coding or design, can lead to the atrophy of critical skills, which in turn might lead to avoiding practicing the craft. From the craft's perspective, it's better to stay rooted than disconnected.

When is one not directly practising the craft?

• Team management and leading
• Staff management
• Customer relations
• Policy design and implementation
• Project management
• Coordination
• Administrative tasks
• Operational management
• Overseeing processes
• Financial management

In reality, most of the above activities are required parts to complete the actual work, hence they are the work.

Conclusion: craft + !craft = results
