Charles Bukowski - American author

Seeing as many of you are writers artists and binderers, I was wondering how you cope with making sure you put in enough effort to see end results? Maybe it is not applicable to most of you, but I cannot seem to incite myself to do anything. I'd claim ennui but it really is just general idleness. From what I can tell there's no causality to the matter. Any tips to move past that wall? I can only jerk off so many times before I lose interest in the one thing I have a proclivity for.
