I love threads like this - so inspiring. At the same time, reminds me how much of a lazy ass I am. I have like 10 side projects that I have about 0.005% complete right now. Any advice for a guy like me? (besides, "stop being a lazy ass", I already know that...haha)

>Any advice for a guy like me?

I kind of have the same problem, but I find I get a lot further if I just pick one thing and run with it for a while.

I've had the same problem too. Focus on one project and work on it at least 30 minutes every day. It will be much easier to get motivation once you'll see progress

Makes sense - 30 min a day is manageable for sure. It's just a matter of actually sticking to it. (I realize how ridiculous I sound right now)

But I think you are quite right about finding motivation with visible progress.

I better get crackin!

Maybe try to release something VERY early and collect feedback from people. That way you know EXACTLY what to focus on because people will use it. Motivation level: Awesome!
