How? This is the whole problem; for many folks, this isn't helpful advice because the whole problem is that it's hard to do things if you're not "feeling" it.
- DwnVoteHoneyPot 5y agoJocko uses the example of writing a book (he's written fiction and non-fiction). It's a mental activity which is known for "writer's block". Jocko says go through the motion... sit down and write 1,000 words per day minimum. At least it's progress. When you have energy later, you have something to work with. You might need to re-write everything, but that still quicker than trying to write it perfect the first time. I think that's very applicable to coding.
