So, you want to be motivated to finish the project, aka you're meta-motivated. But you need cheering on, because you don't think you're motivated enough. Think about why you are meta-motivated. Why do you want to have the project finished? If there's a really good reason, and you think deeply about that, maybe that helps your motivation. > I feel like it's becoming a death march that will crush me unless I put in the final spurt needed to get over the line. I'm tired. I feel like every feature I need to implement is dragging me through molasses. Or... maybe you need a break? You wrote that this is a personal project. Ask yourself if the remaining effort is worth it. Don't fall pray to the sunk cost fallacy. If the answer is a resounding "yes", maybe it helps with motivation. If the answer is a "no", well, then you have your answer. Then ask why you feel so strongly about wanting to finish.
