How to not demotivate

How?

When doing something, developing new software, algorithm, game, or something else that you do, and start thinking about if it worse what can I do?

I don't know the answer to that question but you can follow these steps that can help you with that.

  • Disconnect from that problem temporarily (Taking some fresh air, making some exercise, reading a book or an article better than this one, etc. )
  • Look back for everything that you have already done and achieved (that can help you gaining motivation to keep going)
  • Save the work and start again from scratch, on the paper, to check out if everything is working as expected or if you find some tiny bug under your nose.
  • Talking about the problem to someone, or alone, also can help because you are listening to what are you saying the thinking if that makes sense or if it can be done in some better way.

These are a few steps that can help.
In the future, I will write a more deep post about this theme.

Don't forget, stay positive!
