I recommend spending more time time to plan and explore your idea or project before doing anything. As if you were considering it as a potential business. Even if it's just a personal project, think about the time and money you'll need to invest, and the benefits and value it will provide. Think on why you should prioritize this over other tasks or existing projects. Most importantly, sleep on it. Get away from it and do something else. Spend at least a couple of days on and off planning it. Outline and prioritize features and tasks. Decide on the most important ones and define the MVP.
If, after this planning process, you still feel motivated to pursue the project, go ahead! By now you should have a good reason and motivation to do it. Focus on finishing a simple MVP quickly and then iteratively improve it. This will give you the satisfaction of having a functioning product.
