Like someone else said, you kinda just have to do it. Like just sit, and start. This was my attitude when I was teaching myself software development the past few years. I'd come home from work (I worked in a lab as a chemist) and just sit and work on whatever project I was doing at the time. While I enjoy coding a lot, it's far less enjoyable after work when you just want to relax. But that attitude got me to a really good dev job currently, so it paid off

Now though, it's hard to do the same thing when I spend all day looking at code, but I know once I get started again the momentum and enjoyment of my hobby turned career will drive me

Not sure if this was really helpful lol... but hopefully
