Does anyone else have periods where they just can't seem to get shit done? I'll have a few months of solid productivity, followed by a span of anywhere from a few days to a few weeks where I'm just completely useless, can't get motivated to write much code, or can't seem to be productive when I actually am motivated. Weird, right? Anyone else have similar issues?

    I actually wrote about this half a year ago.

    I was feeling guilty for not programming, but I just couldn't find the motivation.

    Same here. I'm idle for a couple months then super productive for a few days. Like, I do those months worth of work in those few days.

    I'm the same. For those who got through this, how/what did you do?

    You’re definitely not alone. I find escaping to our cabin in Colorado with absolutely NO electronics helps boost my mentality. Disconnect for a bit if at all possible, it works wonders!
