I am on the same page with you. But I've also decided to focus all my strength on one thing for the next 5 years just improving it and making it the best product for my customers. Right now it's so easy to make apps with amazing frameworks like Vue and Laravel that anybody can create something in a week or sometimes even a day[1]. We indiehackers are never short of ideas and shiny objects. I too was part of that movement and I created many projects, one or two even won out Product hunt proudct of the day and started making money too. Alas the fame and fortune was short lived because I was just too distracted and never focused on building one thing. I never took the step that is much more important than launching the product. It's the boring day-in and day-out sales and marketing part. The content writing and the lead generation part. The SEO part. The thing that acutally brings in the revenue part. So anytime I have an amazing idea for my next project. I just quietly put in my Google docs and get back to my main focus. I think this is the only thing which will finally help me succeed.

What is your main project?

  It's a tool to create videos using just text, called Buzzvid. You can play with the demo here (1). I'm still working on the homepage, tutorials, etc. It's still a month until launch. Don't want to hijack this thread but if you have any feedback, please send it to the email in my HN profile. (1) https://buzzvid.com/members.html https://buzzvid.com/members.html

As long as you select the right product to focus on, that sounds an excellent plan.

  I think OP's point is that you have to focus this way to get to the point of knowing if a product is the right one to focus on. Not focusing this way only guarantees that you'll move on before even finding out.
