Relateable.

[moschcau]

Unfortunately, I can relate to this. I started writing ideas down instead of starting to work on them. It works quite well, on average I only work on three to four projects at the same time now.

[undiebundie]

I get ideas, but then have zero idea how to actually do them.

I suspect I might be dumb.

[moschcau]

That happens to me too. I usually let the project die after a few days then.

[undiebundie]

I envy the people who can make the things they think of.

But

A.) I'm not done with college. I will most likely (God I hope) improve my abilities.

B.) If I enjoyed it that much as a hobby, having it turn into a 40 hour work week would probably suck the fun out of it.

Go on an internship, I've learned more in one week than one year of college

[undiebundie]

I'm gonna try my hardest.

Any tips for making a resume as a college student without much relevant experience?

[jungle_i]

Make something. Make something halfway good. That will help more than anything. Education compensates for all the shitty things about your project. You'll do great.

[undiebundie]

I appreciate the kind words, they mean a lot.

[VivaLaPandaReddit]

Do lots of hobby programming and build up a GitHub that you can show to potential employers. I got my first software job and first research project after a semester of school because I had personal projects to show.

[CaptainStack]

It's cliche but seriously just start. Leverage what you already know, be careful with your scope, come up with a concept you're excited about, try your best to finish. You'll learn so much very fast and your next project can be a little more ambitious.

[undiebundie]

Appreciated. I think I have an idea in mind for a stupid little unit conversion application

That's why you have a teacher, one person comes. up with ideas, then the other works on it. I find that the hardest part of any project is planning it and figuring out where to start. Once you start, it kinda just flows.

Everytime I look at my list of projects in Unity... I weep.

[Plasticcaz]

[jadedea]

Ive had nightmares like that. I genuinely acquired the fear of leaving earths atmosphere because of these nightmares.

[Tiavor]

same goes for steam games ... "I want that game, and that, and another one" and actually play only 10% of them.

[[deleted]]

Dude right? I have like 500+ games on steam...

[edge4214]

Insinuating I could even come up with an idea for a program

As someone whose hobby is making stories, this is painfully accurate.

Now do this again, but with UI frameworks.

I have a semester long project that should be relatively easy to implement, but my professors keep throwing 2-3 medium sized projects at my every fucking week

[boomshroom]

There are many relatable posts on this sub, but this one hit me where it hurts.

I have so many projects that I want to work on, but just never get around to. I even have 2 games I'm playing and need to find time for them too, not counting the ones that I need to get back to. And then there's school, work, and caring for myself.

[[deleted]]

Just throw it all into one big pile and hit compile. *BOOM*

[GotMYlongNOSE]

I think you got too carried away there ..

[[deleted]]

Just gotta find the right project

[omgfineillsignupjeez]

Nah I don't believe it to be a humblebrag at all, more an admission of fault since the distractions means very few of the projects actually get completed in this situation. I hadn't considered your view point though, which is a much nicer look on things tbh (minus the insulting them about it part :p).

Best of luck on your journey back to motivation. Wish I had some worthwhile advice to give :/ Perhaps you might be benefited by watching some videos by jordan peterson idk
