How can I stop switching between ideas?

My current issue is I can't complete a single side project. My mind keeps getting overwhelmed by ideas and after starting a project and giving a fair amount of time to it, I stop working on it and start working on a new side project. Will appreciate any suggestion.

    You have to get that first customer. After that, all is golden

      Thank you will try to complete my first idea.

    Look up the story of Warren Buffet and his list of 25 things. The gist of it - you have to set aside things you want to do to make time for things you REALLY want to do.

      Definitely will give it a try.

    Get a little pocket notebook and pen. Carry it in your backpack and any time you get another idea, stop, write it down with any details, then put it away. Use it as a vault for when you COMPLETE one idea. I've got an entire notebook of ideas and thoughts over the last 4 years. Write it and forget it to focus on the real goal

      That sounds like a good idea, I will give it a try.

    You can't stop your mind from getting tons of ideas. It's what it does best so let it do it's thing and don't try to fight it.

    Keep that one idea you want to work on. If there are too many, filter them out by keeping one that you think it will be profitable and can be executed in less than a month of work (ideally a week) so that you can validate it.

      That's good advice. I will try to implement it.
