A lot of developers got it wrong
Before i discovered google blogger i was actually trying to add a blogging feature to my own website. This was a foolish endevor. Every project you build should add something new to the world. There already exists tons of different blogging applications, calculators, todo apps, etc. Building an app which already exists is a waste of resources. Whenever you have an idea for a project your first objective should be to seek if it already exists. I decided to explore how to create good projects and find out why there are millions of useless coding projects.
Value mentality
When starting a new project your main objective should be to create something which holds value. Find a need that people have and fulfill it. Put yourself into the shoes of someone who would use the service that you will provide. Don't build another calculator application unless you really think that you can add a spectacular and never before seen feature for it.
Assess your current skill set
It's important to understand your current abilities. Build something which you are already familiar with and add a couple of new things. Be reasonable with your time and skills. The only reason you should ever be learning a new skill is because you want to build something with it. I don't subscribe to the theory of learning for the sake of learning
All in all
Do some soul searching in order to understand your own abilities. You should always be building something out of your strengths rather than weaknesses. Create something which holds value and for the love of god, don't build another calculator application, we have enough of them.
