As I am starting to continue the design of my app, I am being bombarded with a new issue: I am in a bit of a design rut. I feel like I have so many plans for my app yet when I open up the software where I am designing it on, the sight of it ironically stresses me out. I don’t feel much motivation to redesign something I’ve already put so much effort and time into which is frustrating considering I have set aside these next two weeks solely to design and improve certain functions of the app to meet my standard.
In two days, winter break starts meaning that I will have to create a routine for myself to ensure that I keep designing and can therefore give Mason enough time to design as well. I am planning on designating at least 45 minutes each day to designing my app during the break and hopefully by the time that I come back, I will be able to confidently hand it to Mason. Once he is done coding, I have a plan for how I will enact the iteration phase of the app. When we enter the iteration phase of the product, my plan is to obviously test the app out myself then send it to my parents, close friends, and maybe even some strangers to gain some tips on it and improve it as we go. Then, we will be able to fully finish the app and I can present it as my final product.
Before all of that though, I need to figure out how to gain motivation to design. Or at least, to get myself to create something rather than just staring at a dull screen. I am hoping this rut does not last for long, but in the event that it does, I feel relatively okay with how my app is coming along so far. Even with creating something as grand and daring as a new app, small obstacles like these are a part of the process and are things that I am learning to overcome.
