Most builders know the trap—when everyone else is offline during holidays, the noise finally stops. That quiet isn't empty time to kill. It's actually a rare window.
Without the constant stream of notifications, meetings, and market chatter, you can step back and think properly. First principles thinking. The kind of deep work that usually gets buried under daily chaos.
Whether you're shipping a protocol, optimizing smart contracts, or designing the next Web3 experience—holidays give you what money can't buy: uninterrupted thinking space. Your competitors are probably sleeping. You're not.
That's the difference between builders and everyone else. While the world switches off, you're actually building something.

Pretending to be on vacation while actually coding—that's the real gap in competitiveness.

Everyone else is sleeping through the holidays, and I'm still fixing bugs. That's the difference between a builder and a worker, to be honest.

NGL, holidays are for making a comeback. While others are sleeping, we're working on improving the smart contract... This is the mindset of a winner.

That's true, but there's a bit of a logical issue... During holidays, there are many people taking time off, but how many can truly focus and get things done? Most are just scrolling their phones and slacking off. Don't self-hypnotize.

Only when the holiday is quiet can I think clearly, and I do agree with that... but most people can't hold on for more than a few days before they start flooding the screens again.

Holidays? Haha, what I’m looking at is on-chain data — those large address transfer records during holidays don’t lie. The true builders have long since run away, and what’s left is all self-hypnosis.
