I always include in large capital letters at the bottom of my to-do list the following words:

JUST FUCKING LAUNCH

It's there to always remind me (when I am thinking about adding ever more new features to the to-do list) about the importance of getting the product out there.

FYI, I have managed to launch three reasonably big projects in the past two and a bit years (during breaks from contact work); http://gambolio.com (create your own library of online games - pretty much dead now), http://www.casualgirlgamer.com (a blog about online games which peaked at about 250,000 uniques a month) and http://tiki-toki.com (create online timelines, which is just starting to make a bit of money)



I initially read that as JUST FUCKING LAUGH, which arguably has a place on most to-do lists as well.


I read it this way too, and immediately added it to my TODO list. It's important to get reminded occasionally to keep a healthy distance to yourself. Thanks for accidentally sharing a good idea :).


It would be especially useful if the item above is "ask HN for feedback."


haha me too. Both are good additions.


nice timelines
