finishing a project is 10x harder than starting it. cleaning up the bugs is 10x more boring than writing that feature. maintaining a project is 10x less exciting than releasing it.

- do I have other open projects that require my attention instead?

- will I be able to finish this new project or will I only start it?

- should I drop a project so I can start a new one?

take responsibility for your ideas. let them go when it's time.

Maintaining an open-source project is way less exciting because, for the most part, people only ever tell you about problems. With closed-source, those people are likely paying customers... it takes away the sting.
