I have a rut, too. I am not in the rut, because I promised myself a long time ago that I am not going to allow the environment[1] to dictate my state of being.
People like Jocko Willink put this much more eloquently with philosophies like Extreme Ownership (GOOD.), so maybe check that stuff out.
1. The environment being things happening around me. Note, I don't use the term "to" me, because I believe that's victim mentality, and in the grand scheme, challenges are happening to me because I messed up (didn't do something in time), or because they are happening in spite of me (acts of god, house burns down, etc)
