I have been working day and night on one project. I have a few ideas for other projects, some good, some not so good, but no matter what I keep telling myself to hold off on them until the main project is finished.

After giving it some thought I think holding off is the wrong approach. I should allocate some resources to a side project. It will slow down the main project speed a little bit, but I think that this approach will increase the quality of the main project.

When doing web applications it was not uncommon to switch back and forth between projects on a bi-weekly basis. In doing so I would be disgusted with the “old” code when switching back to a project. I would then merge in changes and updates to shared code, modify things a bit to fit the “new” way of thinking. Basically all the ideas and knowledge I had acquired since working on this project would be merged back.

My brain never stops learning and growing so why should my projects stop as well? I am taking on a minor project that I will force myself to work on for a full day once a week. I am hoping that in doing so I will dig myself out of the hole one can do when spending too much time on one thing.

Sneak peak screenshots of the upcoming side project to be posted soon.
