Project Anxiety

Hey everyone,

Recently, I've been trying to get into working on a project that I like but also something I'm building with the hopes of monetizing it. For whatever reason, for many of my projects, I don't end up finishing them because I get sudden anxiety when I start thinking of the scope of the project and all the things I have to do.

However, there were a few days last week where I was working on a project for fun, just a simple website to display pdfs which was for a community I'm apart of and I absolutely just was hyper-focused on it, grinding it out for hours and it felt good. I thought maybe I just had gotten into the workflow now and I could move to a project that I can build and release as an MVP really fast. But I've barely touched the project... Made the project folder started some designs but I can't seem to work on it because every time I want to or should I get the anxiety about the scope of the project.

I do break things down into smaller things and solve those first but I still end up having to think about how all the small things connect and then it just becomes a mess in my brain.

Anyone else have/had this issue?
