I should clarify first that I'm a freelancer and work from home. I'm in a position where I need to work. I have the work I need, i just need to finish the projects, but I just can't get myself inspired to work.

I keep the IDE open in the background but i procrastinate on clicking it and actually getting started with the work. I'd really like to work on my own product right now, and give up freelancing work for good, but I need to keep freelancing for a while to pay the bills while I develop the product, or at least save up enough that I can live a few months concentrating on the product.

Anyone else experience that? What's the most effective way to overcome this?
