get my groove back
Posted in General on 07/17/2002 04:40 pm by katThe past two weeks have been really rough for me. Before, I could come into work and I could just start pounding out whatever needed to be done. I started working on the design for my latest program and then last week, I walked into work one day and I just couldn’t concentrate. I’ve gotten bits and pieces done (blissfully, the design part of this project is done, it’s just programming now). What little I’ve accomplished, though, looks incomprehensible the next day or I run into a dead end somewhere in the code. I have lost my groove temporarily. I guess this is the programmer’s form of writer’s block. Nothing seems to work. I need to get my groove back. I want at least some of this code completed to show to Sally next week. Any suggestions from the programmer’s out there on how to get around programmer’s block? I know I can’t be the only one who’s had to deal with this.
