It's been a while since I've been on here but it feels great to be back. I wanted to ask if anyone has advice for dealing with too many ideas. I know that too many ideas can sometimes be even worse than no ideas. I'm having a hard time managing them, choosing which one is best, and which ones will be time wasters...and I think that's a big fear...wasting time on something which I could be working on something else worth while.

Currently, I'm juggling about 4 or 5 projects when I know I should just be focusing on one, but figuring out which one is the right one is the problem.

How can you improve your chances to choose "the right" one...or if anyone has any advice for dealing with this curse it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
