Decide Which Creative Project to Commit to Next

You've got a notebook full of half-started projects and the sheer optionality is freezing you. List three to five contenders and this prompt evaluates them against structured criteria so you can commit fully to one, without the unchosen ideas nagging at the back of your mind. Good for any maker whose creativity is stalled by too many open loops.

<context>
Creative people often accumulate a portfolio of ideas and half-started projects, which creates a paralysing sense of optionality. Choosing deliberately, using structured criteria, allows full commitment to one project without the cognitive drag of the unchosen alternatives.

<task>
List three to five creative projects you are considering: [project 1, project 2, project 3, and any others]. Evaluate each using four criteria: personal resonance (how much you genuinely care, regardless of external validation), skill stretch (how much it will develop your craft), completion probability (how likely you are to actually finish it), and audience potential (how many people this could reach or help). Score each criterion 1-5.
</task>
<output_format>
A scoring matrix (project vs four criteria, total score). Then a 200-word recommendation section explaining which project to commit to, addressing any case where the highest-scored project is not the obvious emotional choice. Include one commitment ritual: a specific public or private act that marks the start of this project.
