Syndrome of contemplation
how Long did the project finally finished, and showed everyone liked. It would seem that the work was estimated positively. Showed that it has value. Said praise. Handed out gingerbread cookies. Perhaps the parties have clearly given to understand that the continuation of the work on this topic is appreciated and encouraged. But all without exception sick with laziness and nothing more don't want to do. The fact that they enjoy the result. Do not interrupt, and join.
Syndrome — a cluster of symptoms that are observed simultaneously. If there are some signs of the syndrome, there are other, even while they are not visible. In English the syndrome of contemplation sounds like "contemplation syndrome", but I haven't found anything neither in Russian nor in the English segment of these phrases that would coincide with my understanding. Maybe I chose the wrong term. But let it be so.

Effect of the syndrome of contemplation
After receiving positive feedback from the result, the participants feel a reluctance to do anything. They just look at your result and looking forward for a positive feedback. Contemplate and enjoy.
It can also manifest in physical fatigue, chills, dizziness, apathy, nervousness, depression.
Sometimes there will be a cold, headache or other minor illness.
Some may also be linked with adaptations and take it for emotional burnout.
Possible that an overdose of dopamine, followed by "fever". But I'm not going to talk about dopamine chains "action-reward", stimulation or suppression. Leave this to the professionals.
Treatment
It would seem that the work was estimated positively. Showed that it has value. Have given approval. Said praise. Perhaps the parties have clearly given to understand that the continuation of the work on this topic is appreciated and encouraged. But all without exception sick with laziness and nothing more do not want to.
There is a desire to start to treat lazy. Arouse the inner motivation to impose an external. To encourage, to punish. To threaten, to command.
From my point of view, the syndrome of contemplation is not a disease. I don't think it should be treated. The participants should arrange a course of rehabilitation to restore physical and mental strength.
Treatment Rehabilitation
If you ask about feelings of these people, then they will not talk about his depression, laziness, or apathy. They can even be very emotional, to feel enthusiasm, to speak of joy, of euphoria. They are happy. Happiness is not necessary to treat. It is necessary to remember. It must be experienced. They will want to repeat the experience, but only if the experience will leave an imprint in the soul and mind. Let the human brain would handle this.
Please: let people enjoy the result, otherwise they will not invest their heart and soul next time. I think it's easy enough:

Since I worked in the field of web development, then judge primarily on companies, which is developing software and web projects.
Almost all companies and teams process of contemplation, if he happens to be interrupted abruptly, categorical. For example, the team working on the SCRUM, are obliged to respect the rhythm (sprints) that requires a transition from one task to another without stopping. Almost continuous process of value creation by the development team cannot be broken by periods of contemplation, otherwise it will start to decrease the speed (velocity) and the duration of the sprints will begin to float.
Especially suffering from such a web Studio, where many small projects and work delivered on a continuous flow. Nobody will notice if suddenly some N+1 the project will be executed in a new design, new code base, or something different from the other projects. And sometimes even ignore that "those characters" is not proud.
Especially suffering from such a team working remotely. They traditionally have a problem with socializing, they are unable to or are not able to share their feelings. And if you share, others may not be as bright to accept these emotions. Sort of "happiness only for themselves." Sometimes from the point of view of the rest of the team it looks like "they are like sick, not communicate", "something from them. no second day, tasks in task Manager are not moving", "they are skimming what?".
Rhythm disturbance causes an unpredictable change of plans. The staff of the Department of management, where all the work is based on plans, there is a desire to deal with such failures. For example, they are doing so for the stages of design, development, implementation, support answer different teams. This separation breaks the connection characteristics on the prerequisites (engineering, study, work) and characteristics of signals (the completion, demonstration, feedback). As a result, the team is not experiencing acute attacks of euphoria, but in a stupor is not falling. Goes smoothly, like clockwork. Yay! Cured.
Some employees such an approach, by the way, too. This allows them to not very much to invest and easy to change one job to another. What's the difference where to work, if anywhere, always the same problem, the backlog is always crowded with tasks, always without a difference what task to do in the next sprint, often the choice of tasks in the sprint is not done by the employee? Continuous passive programming process. Tired — change the job to try new subject area or another programming language.
No joy from achievements = no desire to achieve. IMHO.

If you have questions about internal and external motivation of employees to improve work efficiency, then it definitely should at least once get into the condition of the syndrome of contemplation. Having lived through it, the company will receive a positive experience, leading to increased intrinsic motivation of employees. To consolidate the effect, you need to understand that the contribution of the forces and the shower has great value to the company.
The team was carried, bore and raised the project, product, or some major feature. Tell me, is this feature / project / product — it was a beloved child? Then remember this day as the birthday of the project. Birthday MVP. Birthday features. A day of joy. You can arrange a holiday, to celebrate a special in the corporate calendar of important dates. Regularly celebrate it — even just as the tea party in the office, and maybe even as an extra day off with a picnic in the fresh air, sporting events, Banquet. Importantly, the entire company saw this day the feeling of happiness of progress was shared, remember it, appreciate it.
Well, the first appropriate day is the day immediately following the day of delivery. Still, the team is "in withdrawal" and can't do anything, so why not arrange a pizza party right now and rehabilitative day tomorrow?
Lay in the budget, the company not only national holidays and employees ' birthdays, but the birthdays of the projects. If such events become many, they can be combined, for example, the projects by month or by quarter.
Example
I work for a company Icons8. We draw vector icons. In response to user requests. Free. We practice SCRUM and all employees work remotely. I mentioned that SCRUM and remote work are the reasons for reducing the effects of the syndrome of contemplation. But I want to share some good practices.
Consider web development. Pool of tasks for the next sprint we are going with the whole team, including content managers and designers. The product owner can also put forward their wishes. Themselves web developers can add their tasks. Then tasks in the next sprint are recruited team of developers and they choose what they want.
On the one hand — it looks like anarchy. On the other hand, we do only what the team needs, in terms of corporate values that have been defined and documented all the company in advance. Important point — if a particular participant should not be the General values, he will not be able to work according to this scheme, alas, and goodbye, I hope that no offense. Please note, this process is used not only internally but also outside. We paint icons, to the right people — for this is Bank of ideas with a vote. Designers also are experimenting, doing what they want. Otherwise, we would not appear cool icons, new styles, and there would be a special thematic series of icons.
Some of the products the company was established as a result of self-selection of colleagues. For example, search icons on handwriting sketch (the link will not give something he persistently lies), viewer Sketch file under Windows, project omg-img to insert icon in HTML and the direction to insert icons into third-party CMS, CRM and website Builder (special project on SmartProgress). Work self-planned, self-implemented. The objectives are different: to try new technologies, try new ways of working with users to find new ways of solving user problems. Importantly, we do them because they want to do.
The days of joy. A lot of them. I can't say whether it is right and quite often we celebrate. But a lot of them. For one only in 2016 turned out a significant selection of hastalak.
