Great stuff! Just on that last point, it can feel disheartening when you have all these ideas, if very few of them ever get finished (or started for that matter!) but even throwaway ideas have value; you never know what random combination of throw away ideas will become ‘the big one’ that you actually love and finish and share with others!

In any case you will learn loads in the ‘journey’ of creating and even during the ‘coming up with ideas’ phase.

100% Agree! I completely forgot to mention that maybe out of 10 ideas that you think of only 1 will be actually good and that is all a part of the process :) Thank you so much for adding that.
