How to deal with the feeling when, by the end of the work on the project, it becomes boring?

This, I think, is familiar to many when you work on a design for a long time - over time it becomes boring and stops liking. And there is a feeling of its inferiority, it seems no longer as cool as it was originally, and I want to redo it, almost anew. 

Objectively, I understand that the work is good. But due to the fact that he worked a lot on it, the project became boring. There is a direct obsessive desire to redo everything, change something, but you don’t know what. Everything seems to be great.

How to fight? Only, please, no answers like "realize that time is money."

There is a direct obsessive desire to redo everything, change something, but you don’t know what. Everything seems to be great.

Engineer's first rule: Is the objective achieved? Is the customer satisfied? If yes, do not touch. Are there any specific imperfections that can be formulated? If not, don't touch. It should also be understood that experience is constantly growing. For how many years I have been sawing all these things (not design, but not the essence) - and I still look at projects made a year or two ago, and it hurts a little. If it hurts right away, then why are you doing it badly? And if it’s done well, but it still hurts, then it’s for a psychologist and work with your head. You never know what there is - unhealthy perfectionism, impostor syndrome, total self-doubt...работает - не трогай
It is also always useful to remember that the project is not made for oneself, but for other people, and they generally don’t give a damn about what imperfections (and not necessarily real ones) the designer sees in the project.

How to deal with the feeling of "fat"? For half a day I ate a cool cake for five kilos, I almost finished it, but it doesn’t even fit ... What is wrong with me?

When this happens, it is a sign that your subconscious no longer wants to allocate energy to this activity. Starts saving for other purposes. This is his task. Allocate energy only for important purposes at his discretion. Therefore, seriously ill people often sleep. In a dream, energy is saved for the treatment of illness. This is the work of the subconscious.
What should be done.
You have to focus on the bad feeling of work. Mentally say to yourself: I thank you that this feeling shows that I have such a program inside me that creates this feeling. And I'm destroying this program. Mentally imagine that you are destroying this program. Do this three times.
The result will be in the form of an improvement in your internal state. Again, remember about work and listen to yourself.
If there are no changes, then the attempt failed. No experience yet. Repeat a few more times.
And the result will be in the feeling that it's just work. A calm state of mind. And there is no longer any hostility towards her, towards this work. And you can easily finish your work.
