When you do a certain amount of work, you usually find a point where you sit back and say, wow.... I got alot done there.... and you either take a break or maybe just sit back and absorb it for a little while... well, for me that used to be like, kick out 3 or 4 sites, and think, cool... kickin' ass, lookin' good.... that was the comfort/break zone..... then you get back into it.

but lately.... I've just realized that this is happening far too frequently. Like, I'll change the color of some text and hey... lookin' good! Break time!

wtf?

how the hell did this happen? and how the fuck do I fix it?



anyone else got any mind numbing revelations? Let's share folks... people pay good money for this kind of therapy.
You're getting burnt out dude.

I had that problem last year almost to where I wasn't working for weeks at a time.

This year I set a bunch of goals and started looking into new things to keep my interest peaked, aswell getting out of office occasionally. Seems to be helping and making me more productive.

Try looking into other avenues that can take you away from designing for periods of time so when you go back you can get back into the grove.
