There's a rather typical "I kicked ass and got stuff done, now what" syndrome which happens to just about everyone to a certain degree. After weeks/months/year

There's a rather typical "I kicked ass and got stuff done, now what" syndrome which happens to just about everyone to a certain degree.
After weeks/months/years of intense concentration and efforts aimed at achieving a certain goal you're done and that goal is no longer there. This creates a void in your mind and leaves you wondering "now what?". Happens to me after every major project go live, sometimes even after a particularly challenging development sprint.
For me personally the way to "cope" with this is to switch contexts completely for a couple of days up to a couple of weeks (logistics permitting obv)- go camping, fishing, skiing, buy a plane ticket to Europe etc etc.
This is not a universal recipe of course but is something that has worked for me and other ppl I know.
