A modest project finished for pleasure can make the next one easier to begin.

Finishing is a skill and it gets practised most cheaply on small things. A tiny project completed for no reason other than enjoyment teaches your hands and your confidence the whole shape of a piece of work, from the enthusiastic start through the boring middle to the awkward end. Large ambitious projects teach that too, but they take years and can fail in the middle.

Pick something you could complete this weekend with no stakes attached. Make it slightly too easy on purpose. The point is the ending rather than the object.
