If your job is done and they don't assign you new tasks there are a few things you could consider:

- Find something to improve

- Work in side projects of your own

- Find new stuff to learn / practice

I know, but somehow the motivation is not there, especially with side projects. I started a couple that aimed at improving our internal stuff, but they are sitting there. Everybody is positive until it is time to deploy/use something new. I did manage to read quite a bit and try new things the last couple of years though.

In the end, it is always lack of motivation I guess.
