How do YOU regain your ED mojo?

So, I've been going through a patch of not playing ED much. At all. Hence my patchy participation here over the past several weeks too.
I've misplaced my mojo. It's coming back. It always does. But it's taking its time.
What do YOU do to get yourself back in the game?
Yes, I know it's heresy to make the excuse that so many other games have called for my attention, but that's what happened only now I want back into my favourite game.
I need suggestions for what I should do to get my game back on.

I need to get back bubble-side, I guess.

Yeah. Look, I want a reason to explore. But I need a real, solid reason. Stuff to find. I'm currently just completely disenchanted with exploration. I wish it were better, I'm afraid.
 
Elite isn't a game i play daily. there's just not much left that i want to do. I'm still working Federation rank to Rear Admiral, and there's the Emperial rank to King. but i have to Want to play it. It's totally understandable. To me personally, if i want a nice relaxing evening i'll fire up my MP3 player and play Elite.
 
I have a list of all the things I want to do in the game. When I get bored I pick one (especially an easy one) and go get it done. The removal of the fourth item from engineer blueprints was a huge thing for me. I ticked off so many engineer stuff off my list, that got me through the lull really quickly. Now I'm having a blast with my new weapons and engines. Going to work on exploring this weekend probably.
 
Sometimes a break helps.

I think the 'Mind the Gap' mission came too soon after my Beagle Point trip, and mid-way into the 'Gap' I really lost my motivation for Elite.

So I took a few weeks off to finish some other games that had been gathering dust in my collection, and returned with vigor renewed!

I'm actually making progress with the engineers atm! Wonders abound! [haha]

A Year ago i had a moment like that.

Can't really remember what game i played meanwhile, or if i played any game at all.


But the feeling came back when i booted up the game just to check. The sounds, the elevator that lifted my ship into the main hangar, at that point i didn't even remembered why i stopped playing it for a while.

Probably The Division or Ark Survival. Haha, remember those?
 
Well, as you already know, I had a blip a while back and lost my way a bit. But, it didn't last long....and luckily I only was out for a day or so, which by my record was a hell of a long time. But being out here in the Gap has severely pushed it to the limit. I need a break now, but not from ED, just exploration. So looking forward to getting bubble side again!
