I've started probably 15 projects in the last year. Finished maybe 2.Every time I start something I'm excited for like a week and then it hits me — nobody actually asked for this, nobody's waiting on it, and nobody will care when it's done.

I think I need a real problem behind what I build to actually stay motivated. Does anyone else feel this or am I just bad at follow through?

Been learning development for a while now and I can build things — but every time I sit down to start a project I just stare at a blank screen.

Every idea I come up with either already exists, feels too small, or I lose motivation halfway because it doesn't feel like it solves anything real.

Is this just me or does everyone go through this? How did you guys get past it? Genuinely stuck here.
