Lately I have been doing some side projects as well as contract work and it seems I'm not really producing code at an efficient rate. For one project I estimated that I could wrap it up in about three weeks, but it ended up taking nearly five.

Although my code is "good" (my employers tell me as much), I just wish it didn't take so long. It was the same with mathematics homework in school. I remember doing well in my Theory of Computation class but I always took so long on the homeworks and for one exam I had to request extra time to finish the last problem.

I feel like being able to efficiently craft code in a reasonable time would be a major breakthrough.
