I constantly put things off because I'm a full time student, my class projects come first. I've been creating a database for my college CS department for a class all semester, as well as workng on smaller projects on my operating systems class(shells, mem allocation simulator). And during the summer I'm always too busy working or partying.
This summer, however, I have to start on iPhone development for my research next semester, so I can't really afford to get lazy and put it off for the whole summer like I usually do.
If only there were more hours in the day... But even then I'd just waste them lol.
[QUOTE=ryandaniels;21555838]Was this directed at me?[/QUOTE]
No, its directed at me. :downs:
(hehe no I don't got no downs.)
I can't commit myself to anything.
75 projects in my projects folder, 4-10 of them are being worked on. And another 10-20 outside of vb studio, and one svn'ed.
Yes, I hate myself.
[QUOTE=flyboy95;21564054]This is why I always make a tech demo before I make anything. I know that if I can't finish that, there's no way I'll finish the actual thing.[/QUOTE]
Pretty much same here.
My problem is I'll make the tech demo, look through my code, and constantly rewrite things. Then I'll just get bored and start playing something on STEAM.
What usually happens to me is I write something basic, then build off of it. Then when I'm pretty much done I think "Now what" because I don't know what to do with it..
I haven't really started many projects but I find it a lot easier to make a really simple version and toy with it till its fine-tuned enough for me to be satisfied
I've found out that I code a LOT more if I have someone watching, or if I'm being paid for it (or both)!
Same problem, doesn't really help with building my portofolio :saddowns:
I've had this problem for years and years and sometimes it drives me nuts that I can never seem to finish anything.
The best thing to do I've found is to do very small projects that you can code in 30 minutes then slowly move onto bigger things.
Sometimes trying a different language will also help, I recently switched from C++ to Java and so far it is keeping me quite interested.
I don't really care if I don't finish something as long as I learned something from it.
God damn it, haven't avoided that in almost none of my projects... xD

Is that a triple-negative? I'm confused

You'd think that'd mostly come just from switching languages though, right?

Lol... Still making sense though...! :D

fixed the triple-negative :buddy:

That's pretty much what he said anyway
