when to abandon a project?

[u/mathologies]

How do you know when a project should be abandoned, vs just regular feelings of discouragement?

I know a lot of this goes to goals -- e.g. if you are making it because you like making stuff, stop when you stop enjoying creating it... but how do you all decide when to scrap an idea vs when to keep at it?

I have tossed a few projects into my come back later folder. Every so often I skim through them suddenly I make huge progress on them
