Ask friend to slap you every time you stop coding 👨‍💻-- thats one way of doing it.

Many might give you some motivation answers, however I think you will need to find your own motivation for coding.
Is it drinking redbull?
Visiting Dev.To every 20minutes?

See where I am going? Everyone is bit different.

I've been there and done that, however my motivation was to build a visible code daily (python), meaning that I would go on random GH or build some random small apps with python that would satisfy me on daily basis hence I got skilled more and more each day.

While coding capture a moment in your head when you are happy, ask "What made me happy" - rinse and repeat .. stay happy and motivated to code.
