Focus on one project outside your FT job, otherwise you will spread too thin and have too much overhead deciding which to work on. Use some time to prioritize/select the one you want to do the most or which has the most potential and then give it all for a few months. Then you can re-iterate. But be wary of perfection paralysis. Ship/get something out the door. Even if it is not perfect. Commit.

And with that said. Don't be afraid to scrap a bad idea. But set ambitious time frames and ship. Then you do not have to worry about the next idea creeping in and stealing the show.
