I start by just getting something to “work” and it usually is completely unoptimized and looks like shit. Once I’ve proven, technically it works, its a slow iterative process of turning coal into a diamond. Sometimes that process takes days, sometimes weeks and for me specifically, years. But it’s the drive to finish that actually gets you to a completed project. Drive and conviction that your thing is going to fulfill your goals (whether that’s money, scale, technical accomplishment, experimentation, etc).
