This is something that’s been frustrating me to no end recently as I’ve had a ton of time over the holidays to do whatever I want. I have a dozen half beaten games and half watched tv shows that I really should just finish but idk why I just can’t stick to one thing until it’s done and then move on to the next like a normal person.
Well that’s peak ADHD for you right there. New thing=dopamin. No dopamine any more = abandoned projektets. My best advice is to pick something that you can keep itterating on infinitely and keep interesting. For instance i like making smoothies and its something you can vary for ever and never run out of recipes to try. Basically food is a good hobby because there’s so much to learn from the entire world
For gaming something like Minecraft can be fun because infinitely projects, but maybe harder to stay motivated.
3d printing is also good because there’s something new constantly.
Now I think that may have been the reason why I finished uni and got a degree.
What I was studying was percussion performance and it’s solely iterative work. You learn something every day, you practice, it’s constantly interesting cause there are so many excercises, so many sheets to read and learn by playing, so many music pieces to learn playing. You add small things to the recipe every practice session, may be every day. You make it interesting all the time. Plus this kind of stress when you’re on a stage, it’s also motivating. And you basically work with kind of a stimulant, which I consider music is. Also you move when you play, another stimulant, you look like a monkey hitting instruments, but it’s actually a performance and people even might enjoy it :D
