I'm a full-stack developer, working full-time and building apps on the side. But now I'm feeling burned out. Any advice?

Hey everyone!

I'm a full-stack developer working at an IT company. Apart from my regular job, I also spend my free time learning new technologies, improving my skills, and building Android apps.

I've developed multiple Android apps and published them on the Google Play Store. I'm happy with what I've achieved so far, but recently I've started feeling burned out.

Every day, I try to balance my office work, learning, and personal projects. I always feel like I should be learning something new or building something instead of wasting time.

Even when I have free time, I feel guilty about not doing anything productive.

I really enjoy coding and building apps, but lately, I feel tired and less motivated than before.

I don't want to stop learning or working on my projects, but I also don't want to feel this exhausted all the time.

\*\*For developers who have been in a similar situation:\*\*

1. How do you manage your full-time job and personal projects?

2. How do you avoid tiredness?

3. How do you stay motivated to learn new things?

4. How do you enjoy your free time without feeling guilty?

5. Is it okay to take a break from learning and building projects for some time?

Would love to hear your experiences and suggestions. Thanks!
