I am stuck in a loop:
- Trying to find problems
- Thinking i’ve found one to solve
- Coming up with a cool way to solve it / look at what competitors doing
- Have doubts that it isn’t something i’m passionate about and that i’m just copying
- Move onto next problem
What can i do to make real progress, i’m taking one step forward then one step back!!
If it’s any consolation, I’m stuck in idea limbo as well. Seems like I find an idea, get super excited about it for a week or two, sometimes even build an MVP (easy trap to fall into when you’re also a dev), and then lose interest or talk myself out of it two weeks later.
I’m really frustrated because I want to start working on actual business problems but I can’t even get past the starting line.
So hey, you’re not alone.
