This post contains stories I can very much relate with. I use a lot of the mentioned strategies like prototyping as a learning mechanism, but still haven’t totally cracked the code on how to get unstuck other than time and random inspiration.
I think getting randomized is a huge source of demotivation for me and that’s not something you can always control. Best thing to do is block off your calendar and mute messages and emails from popping up, and checking those on an hourly basis. But also getting a random task to go learn about something might mean I lose all motivation for the current task and will slow down its completion by 10x or more.
