    Fuck. I think I need to get out of this game. I've been putting off a website design project for weeks because I have no inspiration or confidence in producing something decent. Spent today proving myself right. Urggghh. Maybe leave it now till Monday and it will be okay.

    • Me too I’ve got projects lined up but cant be arsed to do any of them as the Brits say. Zero motivation or drive, not passionate about building websites_niko
    • For clients any more. Seems like an empty, pointless pursuit. I need to find something that gets me up in the morning excited to make a difference._niko

    • Thanks guys. Feel a bit more optimistic today. I've now got 4 days off in the countryside with my wife and kids so back on Tues to smash it.Hayzilla
    • Plus the thought of finding a new career is more depressing than feeling uninspired LOLHayzilla
    • As others told me, get out of design agency/freelance life. Go work for a tech company. Better hours, better work/life balance (strictly 9-5!).microkorg
    • After 20+ yes in agency life I wish id made the leap years ago! Yes the job isnt as 'creative' being all UX/UI. But it allows ME time to be creative!microkorg
