Best
Take a break, and do something totally unrelated to your field, that helps.
Take a good nap...
I used to this person that looks all the time super motivated and energetic. But since the war in Ukraine started, I often feel tired and procrastinating a lot of tasks. Anxiety and bad news are something that is always on the background. If I didn't have sport, in my case CrossFit and acrobatics, I can't believe I could handle it. It recharges me and helps brains to take a break for one hour. After the training, most of the tasks looks doable. Probably it's basic biology and hormones, but it really helps with my lack of motivation.
I'm glad you found the way to motivate your self. Keep going !
Are you fighting with this for a longer time? Short term solution for me is a meditation or sports - definitely doing something else than this kind of work. If I suffer longer, I try to see something new, so I would be traveling in a new country and experience a new culture. This unblocks everything for me. Can you work remotely?
Take a walk in nature (in silence).
Specifically, regarding creative block, I now use AI to help (I say that someone who is building an AI-powered startup) In terms of motivation, I’ve struggled with this a lot especially because I’m working mostly on my own. I think being a part of a community helps. When you see other people working, you do because you don’t want to be left behind.
Take a break, listen to some great music and do some sports 🤩
I like to go for a walk when it's a small block, but when it's something bigger definitely it's worth changing the environment
Go out, meet people, play a game or binge watch a show 😁
Get on product hunt! 😄 you'll leave motivated and creatively awakened.
