 - **Make it a habit/routine to do your project**. As with everything requiring a lot of time investment and dedication (exercise, language learning, ...), it's important to make it a routine (unless of course you're taking a break) to really do something significant. A small, spontaneous, irregular polish of your project is great too, but to really do the biggest part you just need a habit. People often say they're lazy and can't get into it -- everyone is lazy and everyone can get into it. Here is the trick: start with trivial things, just to get into the habit, i.e. at first it's literally enough to write 1 line of code every day. At the beginning you're not really doing much of any significant "work", you are just setting up your habit. Anyone can write 1 line of code per day: just tell yourself to do this -- write 1 line and then, if you want, you're done. You will find that second or third day you'll be writing 10 lines and in a week you will quite likely be looking forward to it, soon you'll have the other problem -- getting yourself to stop.
 - **Milestones and psychological mini rewards are nice to keep you going**. It's nice to split the project into some milestones so that you see your "progress", it's very good if each milestone adds something visible, something you can "touch" -- for example with a game just the moment when you become able to physically move through the level always feels very rewarding, even if you've done it many times before, it's always a bit surprising what joy a simple feature can bring. Exploit this to increase joy of making your art.
 - **Don't expect or aim for any reward other than the finished project**, don't expect/chase [money](money.md), fame, gratitude, don't expect that anyone will notice or thank you for the project. You are making it only because you want something that doesn't yet exist to exist and that's the only reward you can and should ever expect. Firstly this makes your project [selfless](selflessness.md), secondly it makes it pure, non-corruptable, only dedicated to its goal and nothing else, thirdly it spares you suffering from failed expectations.
+- **When you're hard stuck, go away from it for a (possibly long) while.** As they say before making decisions: "sleep on it" (maybe even many times) -- there's something about letting your mind rest for a while that makes your subconsciousness solve things, or at least make you comprehend the issue better, see it from a different angle. Therefore when stuck, go do something else -- this is also why it's preferable to have several projects, but generally it's good to just take a break and do something meditative like going for a walk, making something out of wood, doing some sport, sleeping, listening to music and so on. Stop trying to solve the issue you had and just relax for a few days, maybe weeks. It is quite possible inspiration will come from somewhere, fresh air will help you think and maybe a solution will occur to you during this time [spontaneously](zen.md), but even if it doesn't, when you come back to the project you'll be very fresh, rested, your thoughts will be sorted, unimportant stuff filtered out, it's like you've got a different man on the task who will help the desperate past self. Sometimes you get back and immediately spot a simple and elegant solution. Really, this works like [magic](magic.md).
