I have more than 50 projects and find myself often bogged down by fixes and updates. This can creep up on you. Going back to older code bases (even ones you wrote) can be daunting and annoying. One customer email can ruin the whole day. AI has definitely made this easier but it's still challenging.

I've now started to be more ruthless in cutting older projects that aren't going anywhere (or are not 100% automated) and I also try and consolidate new project ideas as a features to existing products.

Still its hard and everything is a balance. Some of my projects in case anyone's interested: https://www.hackyexperiments.com
