Schedule specific times for app work. 2-3 focused hours beats 8 distracted hours.

🚫 Avoid Perfectionism

Done is better than perfect. You can always update after launch. Just ship it!

📊 Track Progress

Use the Launch Checklist bonus. Check off tasks daily. Momentum builds motivation.

🤝 Get Help

Join the community. Ask questions. Learn from others who've done it.

🔄 Iterate Fast

After launch, update based on feedback. Weekly updates show Apple you're serious.
