Actually, I am here to say that it is not a very tough thing to do projects. Because I also thought like that my early days. Doing a project is a very interesting thing for me now. I love to do projects. Cause it is the best way to gain something new and update my knowledge with real-world examples.

Before moving on to the tips let's consider what is a project? and why a project is important? A project is a task series that should be completed to get the desired outcome. But in our case, we are expecting to learn something new and update our knowledge. That would be our main goal.

Ok. Let’s break down our topic into small parts. It is easy to understand what to do and how to do.

• Don’t think more. Start now
  
  As a first step, we all are thinking about what to do. If we have confirmed what to do, then we are thinking about how to do it regularly. That is the main reason for getting failed with projects. We are imagining a huge picture of what to do. Then we do nothing that is expected. Think simple and do simple. When you are familiar with an ongoing project, you feel better than your beginning. Then you can imagine what you want to do and how to get the expected outcome from your project. So, don’t think more. Start now.
• No need to be hurry to go deeper
  This also is a very important thing with doing projects. Just try to do what you know. Then realize that you have an ability. Then you can go deep step by step. Because if you go deeper without prior experience, you will be feeling disappointed with I know nothing. That is why I suggest you do a simple thing and make yourself confident. Feel confident with your simple project. Cause it will be simple for others but it will be a huge turning point in your life. I also began like that. That is why I can highly recommend this step.

Because your timeline directs you to finish your project as soon as possible. Cause now you are willing to start other projects after finishing this.
