I can feel this block, especially when I'm starting a new project.
Two things that help me:
* have a good boilerplate
* ship things that do nothing
i.e. I find it helps to start a project using my good boilerplate then set up builds and releases (so for web projects, put them online) so that the page doesn't look so blank anymore, and I can see my progress in "releases" even if they're just for me/others contributing.
I kinda started programming on IDEs (Visual Studio, Eclipse, then Android Studio) and the templates they is kinda a nice way to get quickly started on some projects and not have to worry about configurations. These days, I prefer CLI tooling, so I copy things over from projects on GitHub.
