Not every idea deserves to be made. Choosing which ones to drop is part of the art.

Having ideas is common and cheap, deciding between them is where the judgement is. Making everything that occurs to you spreads your hours across things that were never going to be good, and the mediocre ones consume exactly as much time as the strong ones. Saying no to your own idea feels like loss and functions as focus.

Write down everything you want to make, then cross out half. Keep the ones you would still want to make if nobody saw them. Give the survivors the hours you would have spread across the rest, and see what a project looks like with proper time in it.
