  • Finishing a project
  • Mastering a hobby

It’s all just…never-ending. I can’t do it all…or really any of it. The rest of my life looks like a never-ending stagnant grind right now. I’ve really tried to finish anything, but when the timeline is years?! How do I even do this when I’ve only got like…50 years left? And MOST of that time is grinding a job?

“Start now” I hear you all say. I’ve done that. Everything is indefinitely unfinished. I don’t have the time to commit to it, for another hobby or interest is more engaging.

    It definitely ends. I’m on the other side of that curve and every year goes by faster than the last.

    Going to work…. Yeah, gotta eat. Paying off loans… yeah that’s how it goes, but one day they WILL be paid Finishing a project…. Only if you want to, otherwise pick a new one. Mastering a hobby…. Maybe just set the goal of enjoying the hobby? Take the pressure off yourself. It’s meant to be fun!

    Do what you want to be happy. If you’re not happy, find something new to try!

      They will take way too long to be paid. I’ll be in my late 40s before some of them are done. They are also taking half my paycheck each month.
