How do you stay excited and motivated?
How do you stay motivated and excited about your project? I've worked on a bunch of side projects, and it's hard for me to stay motivated after a few weeks. I especially get demoralized when I tell someone about the project, and they don't share the enthusiasm I do about it. Do you try to ignore external feedback about your ideas?
Few ideas:
Who are you sharing the ideas with?
If I was making apple orchard software and shared it with a developer, I wouldn't expect her to be super excited.
Why are you building the idea? Remember your motivation.
Ship something. Getting something out into the world and getting real feedback is addictive. If you have been building for a while and never released something, just ship it and feel the dopamine. :) Good luck!
