I keep jumping between unfinished personal projects and then i get busy with the job, when I try to go back to them, I lose interest! Any advice?

I have this same problem a lot and I think a lot of devs in general do. One mistake I've made in the past is diving into a single project too quickly and tiring myself out of it. So now I try to have a few projects and work on them equally to try not to get bored of any of them.

Most important though I think - try to really figure out what your MVP is (minimum viable product) so you have the best chance possible to finish a usable version of the product and get it out there. That's rewarding.

Rmrfer brings up a great point, make sure to come up with a good mvp, don't overthink and allow scope creep. If mvp can be completed as a bite-sized chunk, then you'll have more determination to keep working on the idea compared to spending months on something that never reaches the prototype phase.

Also a simple checklist of tasks will help you complete each project. Doesn't have to be a fancy project plan. Break it down into steps you can complete each day. Checking them off will give you a sense of accomplishment. Works for me.

welcome to the club. lol

Thanks - hn side projects is a great read.

publish your mvp and get people using it. if you've got users you will ashamed if you don't update it

Collaborate with someone else on github. As soon as you see the other person committing changes you'll want to keep working on the project
