- Break down large technical projects into smaller, manageable chunks to maintain motivation and see tangible progress.
- Start with sub-projects that can quickly show results, such as automated tests or simple demos, to keep excitement alive.
- Avoid perfectionism in early stages; focus on building 'good enough' components to progress towards a demo.
- Use personal needs as a guide for feature development, especially in personal projects, to ensure relevance and motivation.
- Iterate on components as needed, adopting a cycle of building, testing, and refining to gradually improve the project.
