Let us all admit that it is not everyday or all the time you are in the mood to the things that you do at work. There would come a time you will feel bored doing all these things. How do you manage yourself to get back on track if suddenly you felt that you don't want to do these things anymore? Me, I just take a break. a short break like 15-30 minutes after consuming my lunch break already. Or if i really feel tired of doing all of the things I am doing then I will take a paid vacation leave and enjoy the things I want to do or visit some relaxing spot and do nature tripping or traveling. And enjoy doing all of it and simply enjoy my vacation. Then after that I will be able to love what I am doing for work again. I must work hard for me to be able to experience and do all of it again. How about you guys, please share the things you are doing for you to be able to get the mood back doing what you do at work.

I work from home. I just take a break when I feel overwhelmed. I might watch TV or go shopping for a hour. Then, I ask myself if the work that I was doing is reall worth it in the long run. It is usually.

Thank you for sharing. that is a good way to relieve the temporary boredom you feel. Sometimes having a short break is really good for us to get back on track. Have a wonderful day.

For me if I need to recharge I usually go outside for alittle while. Even if just to run an errand or pick up lunch or coffee The fresh air and different surroundings does wonders. If I cannot leave my office then I get up - go to the restroom, make a cup of coffee, and walk around the office then go back and start again.

It not always I'm not in the mood. But if I had one, hmmm i guess this is what I do. I'll just log in to PC and do what I do know. My lotting, chatting at Birejji and play a heavy metal song in my media player. That is what I do. Will listen to Iron Maiden, Helloween, Dawn Of Destiny, Epica etc.. We don't have break like tea break or lunch break, so it is not possible to do to get the mood on.
