Like -- Just for an example -- I want to play every video game, so I end up not playing none and instead just fucking around online with stuff that doesn't require initiative. The only override I've found is involving other people, I always make time for an RPG session with my friends or for hanging out and such. But I have trouble starting stuff for myself.

What do?

I find it hard to jump between things too frequently. It's all or nothing, more often. For video games I tried elite dangerous in VR and now that's all I ever want to play. I needed a break from VR so I read books for most of a day, which restarted my drive to read a lot.

I guess it's been, 'make it somehow something that I have to tone down, instead of pushing myself to do more.'
