I have a similar mindset, and see it manifest as always being incredibly motivated/excited to tackle the first 90% of a problem, and then falling behind in the last 10% because I don't want to be done, or I get bored of the nitty gritty bugs, or whatever.
To combat this, I always shoot a lot higher so that 90% is a lot more than what 100% would have been of the original. My GitHub issues are _always_ filled with todos and future projects because it makes me feel like I'm building towards something great, instead of just finishing up a project that I'll be done with and not work on again.
It's a mindset that's worked really well for me so far.
