During the last few months, I’ve worked incredibly hard on the first web-based project for Comma Induced.

While my partnership with Nerd Studio has gone uphill since day one, my software development has gone completely downhill. I can count on my fingers the amount of code (for my project) I’ve written in the last 4 weeks.

Unfortunately, I’ve been afflicted by fear and procrastination. As Tony mentioned in one of his posts, fear and procrastination are not viable reasons to “quit” or “move on”.

His article really got me thinking, about my situation, my reason(s) to “move on”, and my goals for the future. I realized I will be better off going through with my plans and simply riding over the “speed bump”.

I initially thought of moving on to a different project, one which seemed like a lot more fun. What I forgot was that I had this exact same energy a few months ago. It’s like I keep searching for some kind of instant gratification. A new idea pops into my head and then it’s “stop the presses!“. I guess being an ENTP aquarius doesn’t help my situation ;)

My project still interests me and I still see an huge potential to solve specific problems for IT people. I just needed a good kick in the butt to get me going again. The effect of a shot of espresso.

I’ve returned to working hard on this project, and you should expect to see some screenshots soon. More hints will be revealed within the upcoming weeks. Hopefully, I won’t let fear or procrastination get in my way anymore.
