Before bedtime, I would write down in a journal what ideas you tried that day, and if you reflect on these a bit as you fall asleep, you could dream about one or two of those ideas. In the morning, re-read the journal entry you wrote the night before & ask yourself if you want to try pursuing that idea any further that day. Listen to yourself, if you can. Eventually, one of the many ideas you have will start to “stick” and then start to snowball after a few weeks of concentration. I think video creation is a great skill to have even if you dabble in it for a few weeks before losing interest.

I, too, jump interest to interest. A few of those ideas will really stick with you if they really resonate with your life pursuits. This is normal.

I’ve had this issue since I was a child. So many hobbies I’ll get into, research extensively, spend the money do it and then lose all interest whatsoever. Sometimes it can take weeks, sometimes days. Sometimes I’ll find old hobbies and get back into them but the process continues. I’m always looking for something new new do but it seems that I can never stay satisfied. I wish it weren’t that way, I wish I could be compassionate about a single thing and stick with it but I cannot. I don’t know why. I have been tested for ADHD and told my results are normal and this type of behavior is normal for a lot of people.

Everyone is saying ADHD, but I wouldn’t say that because you don’t give enough context. I also start doing things that just come to mind, and after a month I change peojects leaving them unfinished. But I think it fairly normal some ppl just have a harder time dedicating all their time to one project. I’m juggling 3 projects as I’m writing this and I’m overwhelmed, yes, but that doesn’t change the fact that I can pay attension when I’m doing one of the three. (ppl who have ADHD usually can’t)

If you just fantasize doing thing, but never do that’s also not the sign of ADHD, I did yt baack in the day. Now I don’t, I don’t even think about it. The solution to “wanting to do stuff, but not doing them” is quite frankly to do them.

What i’d do in ur place is get some video editing software, recording software, and something that can make easy content, like for example CS:GO. You could record CS:GO however you’d like and edit the footage however you’d like. Do this until you enjoy it, and congrats! You did something maybe learnt something, maybe made new friends, maybe discovered a secret talent. This is life buddy. “Fuck around and find out.”

As someone with ADHD I can tell you this is normal for me. I am not sure if this is normal for people without ADHD but yeah it’s hard for me to stay on track with any idea and follow through with it. It sure is fun to explore all this weird crap but not very useful to not get much done. I will say to give you hope I have still been able to cobble together the skills and abilities over the years to have a professional career but it has taken organization and perseverance that definitely don’t come naturally to me.

I’m someone who sticks to skill-based hobbies for months / years.

What keeps me interested in a given hobby for a long period of time is the dopamine hit of the reward at the end, and once I achieve one thing I want to move on to the next.

In a sense, my interests within a hobby change frequently depending on my achievements, but I also know that the kind of achievements available get “better” with time: You can’t beat the final boss if you don’t beat the first boss !
