"Is this how it is everywhere?" Yes, at times everybody gets a little bored. 99% perspiration, etc etc. You have a paycheck coming.
"How to get back into it mentally?" Level up somehow. Work on a problem that's a level higher than what you're doing now. That could be
* figuring out how to automate some part of your current work.
* figuring out how to improve hiring in your current shop.
* go on sales calls and take notes about customer unmet needs.
* mentoring and training junior people.
* starting a lunch-n-learn effort or a meetup of like minded people at work or in your work neighborhood.
* teaching a class at a community college.
These are in addition to what other people have suggested.
- dayjah 11y agoI love this answer. "Situational Leadership" [1] is a philosophy that has served me well as a manager and as someone that has been managed by an inexperienced manager. It benefits from a strict definition of the mental state individuals go through while learning. Some of us are better at accepting the boredom that is a part of this cycle than others. The good news is that you're demonstrating the characteristics of someone less at ease with boredom, so utilizing a methodology stands the chance of offering large personal gains. This answer lists examples of the vocational application of situational leadership, focussed on stage one which is roughly: encouraging a high degree of excitement by challenging the individual to learn new skills in an interesting area.
