    For me, getting a pen and paper and starting to write down the basic logic of one of my ideeas for an app/project, in words, does the trick.

    It gets my mind going and I start to think about code structure, database architecture ans so on, and before I know it I'm at my laptop, typing code.

    Hope this helps :)

    my new anti procrastination technique. Stream yourself while coding. You will feel ashamed streaming your wastes of time

    Make a list of goals, what you want your app to accomplish, look up inspiration, then just start iterating. https://medium.com/@vanschneider/...

    Well I watch 'the social network'. I'll quit on the middle of the movie can't do anything else than code. I repeat this everyday. Or if there is a missing documentation.

    Start basic! Pick a task that is easy or quick to complete. Start with stuff where you can see results quickly.
    This usually works for me and keeps me motivated to dive into the deeper stuff.

    Coding Beer!

    Grab your dev laptop, go to a bar, grab a beer and start coding. Stop coding when you can no longer see the screen, or operate the keyboard.
