Yeah exactly. The trick is to not burn out early. I usually got burned out when I figured out the core (perhaps 20% of the work) and needed many days to grind out the final results, which I did not have the perserverance to complete. This is probably my worst shortcoming of life and I still can't get rid of it when I'm approaching 40.
It seems that the only way for me to finish something is to have the task coming from _someone else_, from a friend or from work.
- borski 5y agoI resonate with this completely. For me, it’s largely a result of ADHD. My solution has always been to partner with “finishers.” I’m a spectacular starter, prototyper, and builder. But I cannot complete the damn project for the life of me. My best friend and first employee though? Thrives on that.
- markus_zhang 5y agoThanks! Yeah it makes sense to partner with finishers :D
