How do you keep yourself motivated?
over 5 years ago from Dau j., front end developer
I'll start with introducing myself - i'd call myself a junior front end developer, i've worked for a few smaller and bigger agencies and most of the projects i was developing took me from 1 to 3 weeks, some of the bigger ones took up to 8 weeks.
The problem is that i get bored quite fast. Second or third week and this super exciting project i was so happy about when i started starts to really bore me. Now as I type this i think this might be partly because i encounter less and less challenges - sometimes it feels too repetitive - just writing shitloads of html and add styling.
Some of the stuff that helps me, when i have such situation: i try adding some fun to the project - cool interaction, fancy hovers, stuff that isn't necessary but feels nice.
I also make list of shit that needs to be done and i cross stuff out of it as i'm working on it.
Is that a junior's burnout or what? How do you cope with such situations if they occur?
