This is a cliche answer but I think you have to genuinely have the problem or be very near to it to come up with a good idea and afterwards execution.

Throughout my life I had several projects that I've never launched. This time I decided to go till the end and launch this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dutchspeak...

Last year I've been preparing for Dutch Speaking Exams without a tutor (using Babbel and ChatGPT) and I really neede a dedicated app to quickly prepare me for the exam. So this project was born from the my actual need I had.

During implementation though I figured that it's easier to come up with new ideas (as working on something spawns ideas or at least ideas of pivoting).
