We've probably all been there, that boost of energy late at night that doesn't let us go to sleep while our mind is bombarded with cool ideas about a new project or tool we want to use.

Your turn on your computer, break your sleep habits for a few days and then never look back at it after months because being an adult is hard.

But then... one day, you come across that side/pet project again in your GitHub Graveyard and the spark starts to come back at you again.

You git clone the hell of out it and when you finally open it you are just like:

Dog astronaut lost in space


So,

What helps you to get back on track?
