I just finished reading another book called the one hundred dollar startup. What I am thinking of right now is how do I start my own business. I do have a YouTube channel that could make money as well as other ideas. But the problem is that I completely fail when it comes to project management. What I am thinking of doing is simply to take programming concepts, sometimes from Wikipedia or other places, and translate them into simple visual explanations. That is clear enough, but the problem is that even the simplest things will have hundreds of sub-projects that will need to be explained separately. Whenever I try to code something, I usually try to do it all at once from memory. Even if I try to make a plan or diagram, I have no real concepts about how to follow a plan and do things step by step. It is easy for someone who knows how to do this sort of thing naturally to not understand how I could have trouble with following a plan, but I have a lifetime of difficulty with this and have only recently learned that breaking down a project into smaller steps was something that you are supposed to do.
For example, what is a suffix tree. I first figured out how to do one of these by drawing a picture. Eventually it was simple enough to understand. When I try to code it, I had some trouble, but I eventually forced my way through it. Even as I am writing this paragraph, the same problem is coming through. I am just writing what comes into my head. There is no way that I could ever run any business this way, but that is just how I think. Before I can move forward, I need to get into the habit of planning before I act. If I can just do this simple thing, everything else will follow.
