Why you may not want to partner up

This may seem odd and unnecessary, but I gotta tell ya'll a story about my own weakness. Years ago I posted on Designer News that I was a developer looking for a designer to partner with on projects. I found somebody too. They were a great friend. Every project that we worked on though never really went anywhere, most didn't get passed the concept phases, or were abandoned in the MVP writing stage, I couldn't finish the projects. I would get so excited about a new idea or the possibilities of something, and then have it go nowhere, all because of me. Eventually I decided that I wouldn't partner with anybody on a side project again, until I learned how to complete something on my own. "Finishing" something personal, or at least completing it enough that it can be used by others, is a skill in itself, one that I hadn't learned. So anyways, please friends, make sure you have that skill, or environment, that will allow you the space or energy to finish what you start.
