My strategy is just to push myself to get _something_ done, even when I don't want to. So, the other night I wrote an SQL query. It was probably 20 mins of work, but it brought me closer to finishing the project. Other days, I'll end up "feeling it" and putting in several hours on a project. So, small increments plus the occasional big push.

true. my whole side project output yesterday was a shell script that monitors if another process is running and lights an led on the raspi if yes :P 40 min work. But one step closer to the goal
What is the goal?
Self riding rc car :-) i thought it would be a ‘simple’ side project... 2 months ago
Funny, I find this more or less works with everything.

Getting out of bed early. Getting something done on a side job. Getting to the gym.
