Ask HN: How can I pick a side project and stick with it? 6 years ago
This works for me:
Let's say I have an idea and I spend a few hours researching about it and get very excited. I don't start working on it immediately. I sit on it for a few days and revisit the idea, say after a week. If I am still excited to work on it, I'll start working on the project, otherwise I drop it.
