Motivation for leetcode

Hello awesome Devs!!

How do you keep up the motivation to grind leetcode after a regular job? For example, I am a software developer with 1 YOE and I find it boring to continue with those algorithm problems after a certain threshold.

But anyway, I feel the hiring process is still the same for most and there would at least 2 DSA rounds for most of the product based companies.

How do you keep up the motivation for this?

I usually take a break until I feel like Leetcoding again :D it does get boring if you continously do it for a while

But, how do you keep up the momentum?

Generally, when I start after a 3-4 months break, after solving 2-3 questions, I think like ... What's the point of all this... And eventually lose all my interest.

I do 2-3 medium/hard questions a day & then kind of reward myself everyday just to make sure that I don't burn out.. 1 question per day is still better than not doing anything for 3/4 months..
