A good workout or go running with deafening music in my ears helps a lot. Make your body aches (in a good way obviously) and release endorphins, the mind will feel better!

If it is not possible, I try to disconnect a little by playing a game, reading a few pages of a good book or focusing on something positive like planning my next holiday or focusing on a personal project.

I get cozy and tune into some relaxing jazz with a cup o’ tea and maybe some cookies.

I also throw out the todo list and just start playing with whatever, as long as it is related to the project somehow it’s fine.

Then I start grabbing smaller and gradually harder tasks until I get in the zone.

If it is all fail I stop entirely and do something else rather than continuing to push myself.

Sometimes a nap helps too.

I lile that. So you start with a small task and once you achieve something, your mood will get better.

Yeah, sometimes taking a step back helps you solve your problem. So sign off and get started again. That's nice Neil :)
