Indeed!
Especially when you are the only one on the project and your peers are doing new and interesting projects every week or two. Personally I have been stuck on my project for the past six months now.
I think this is what I’ve been suffering from at work for the past few weeks. I’ve been working on a redesign for almost a year now, and it still has not seen the light of day … and it’s been through two major iterations. :-/
That’s the WORST. I’m realizing the importance (for me at least) of breaking even the smallest projects into still yet smaller pieces/tasks/to-dos. It keeps me interested, motivated and productive.
