Pick up a new platform... Java tends to drain, come back ready to learn something new.
I've learned several -- it's just by circumstance that Java happens to pay the bills at the moment, though I can't say I was substantially happier when I wasn't writing Java.
And if you aren't, get some more sun, by your comments, your body is probably wanting a shift into earlier hours?
But it's so awfully cold in the morning! (cue the criticism about lack of willpower)
Also, set some lower goals for yourself in smaller tasks and get them done quickly.
Will do. I've tried a bit of this recently but the level of satisfaction felt disproportionately small... but that could just be my mental filter.
Also, play some Red Dead Redemption or your video game of choice. They can really help reduce stress and provide escapes to clear your head after a day of work or when you need to shift to relax.
As a former video game addict, I'm terrified of a relapse.
