Background: I'm quite a starter myself; I'm extremely curious and I'm always looking for new stuff to do. I like picking hard problems to solve. Once I get half way through the solution, having 'figured out' the hard parts, I pretty much lose interest in whatever I'm doing and I look for the next wave. This has been fun so far, but its beginning to get annoying. I've been forcing myself to finish one project I've been working on, but progress has been slow (but steady).<p>Curious about the HN crowd:
* Do you identify yourself as a starter or a finisher?
* Is your co-founder the same as you, or the opposite?
* Does being a starter or a finisher impede you in any way?
I'm not sure where I'd put this on your scale, but I'm an evolutionary thinker instead of a revolutionary one. I don't look at the world and ask "what could be?" - I look at something already existing and ask "why aren't they doing $insert_obvious_feature ?".<p>This means I'll probably never be the "idea guy" in any venture I undergo, but that doesn't really bug me - startups aren't my thing.
While I share your sentiments, I love challenges and problem-solving. And there is definitely more excitement at the beginning, for me the ultimate satisfaction comes when the solution / product comes to life. So while I would say im a starter, it's hard to move on until we make it happen.
