I know Im soliciting "Ive got big balls" answers here but I think we all feel vulnerable and insecure from time to time, if we admit it or not. We want our brilliant ideas to succeed!
So, say you have this great idea, work work on it every day, think it about it every waking min, then all of a sudden you read something or listen to something that gives you major discouragement, something that makes you think "ah f**k it, what's the point, I might as well chuck it in and move on. Its been done before and no one is going to want it. I'm too old, its too late, The chips are stacked against me. I don't have the money. Its so much work etc"
You know, every excuse in the book not to go on! We´ve all most likely had tens of ideas over the years that we were super pumped about for a certain time, and then lost interest in or decided against pursuing (hopefully from well informed decisions!)
What I find helps me is going for walks with business audio books, usually gets me out of theses funks.
Clear goal settings, and deadlines!
THINKING, aka identify and recognising the problem, facing it even though it might cause pain and figuring out how to solve it. "oh snap, that already exists, well how is what I want to offer different Etc) Pivot basically
Being at rock bottom.
Vision board
not putting all eggs in one basket, ie "if this fails, what's the worst that can happen? Ive always got X to fall back on"
Thinking how proud my parents will be (they already are btw) and what i could do for them
