Perfectionism slows progress yet again
So, I spent a few feverish nights postponing paying contract work this past weekend to work on a little coding for myself for a change... something I really don't do much of anymore. I get it halfway done, it works great, I just need to implement the other half, and what do I do?I start not refactoring it, but thinking about how I should. I start thinking the protocol needs reworking, so I create about a dozen text files working out how I think the protocol should work. I spend probably a good hour trying to load it into Eclipse and figuring all that out. And I haven't made one whit of progress since as a result.
I'm not very happy with myself right now. This code needs to be done, not endlessly reworked. Why do I do this to myself?
