How do people decide when to stop improving a project and move on to the next idea?

This is something I’ve been struggling with more than I expected. When I start building something especially small tools or experimental ideas I tend to keep improving it endlessly. There’s always one more feature to add, one more optimization to try, or one more thing that could be polished. But I’ve noticed that some people move on much faster and seem to focus on building many projects instead of perfecting one. I’m curious how that decision is usually made in practice. Is it based on user feedback, personal goals, or just intuition that something is “good enough”? I feel like there’s a balance between improving something until it’s solid and not getting stuck in perfection mode. How do experienced builders handle that transition?
