I have moments of brilliant productivity, and long stretches of banging my head against the wall trying to get momentum. I am currently experiencing the latter and it's driving me nuts. The more crazy I get, the less I get done, the less I get done, the more I start cutting out other things that need to get done (laundry, food shopping, bills, etc.) in order to have more time to dedicate to the stuff I really want to get done... but then more times than not, I still don't get it done, and then have a backlog of a million things big and small that now are all in desperate need of getting done.   —Russell Beattie

That's the story of my life. I totally understand where Russ is coming from.
