Yep. I’ve lost track of how many projects never saw the light of day because I got stuck at some annoying problem and didn’t know how to get past it.

Write things down.

Any time you think of something that you wish to do or something you'd want to explore, write it down somewhere so you can come back to it. This might be a notepad, back of your hand, or your phone; it does not matter.

The next time you feel lethargic, look at that list and see if there is anything you'd like to do off of it.
