As a perfectionist myself, I continue to learn that you have to live with some "shit" in order to get your stuff out there. There's the tendency to rewrite/refactor, this makes side projects harder than it needs to be. It's self-defeating, really. There's plenty of time if you succeed, but no time if you don't. The perfectionism also prevents shipping because you want to avoid the impending negative feedback of your current project, and so you bounce off to something else. How to overcome? Experience (and failures) helps. You've spent so much perfection on something and it still didn't succeed the way you hoped. The next time you would care less about perfection and just ship.
