> I just know how much work is involved to get them going again, and that amount of work is daunting This is usually not true. Whenever I get back to something, I realise it was just 1h of work to implement that feature I've been procrastinating 2 years on. We (humans) are very bad at estiamting how long something will take. It's not that finishing the project will be easy, but doing that specific task you've delayed so much, you know what? That's really easy to do, and can even be fun. Regarding reaching 90% completion. A project is likely never done. What helped me procrastinate less is realising that the goal is not to finish the project, I will never be happy with it. The goal is to make some progress, regardless how small it is. This also fixes the common fear of "finishing a project". If there is no finish line, you are never at 90%. And, as a last thing: building is the easy part. Once you make the project, having people actually see it and use it will be harder, especially if you are an engineer at heart. So, don't be afraid of making something good enough to be released. Release it. No one will care about it anyway.
