There are 3 hobbies I want to really get into, but no matter what I can't seem to focus on something for a long time. I'll be completely honest, I'm lazy as hell and that's a big part of it. I have a difficult time committing to a project.

I am in college majoring in psychology because I want, or at least I thought I wanted to be an art therapist. I haven't had much inspiration lately and when I do actually draw or something it feels like a chore and I can't seem to enjoy it. I always try to finish as fast as I can so it will be complete (OCD) but over with.

I have this problem with my violin as well. I played 1st violin for several years in school, now I can't seem to make myself get into it. I want to be at an amazing level instantly, and if it's not perfect I get upset.

I also bought a lot of books on Italian and would like to learn that but again, I'm lazy and these things take work.

Maybe I need to stop being such a perfectionist. I start and quit diets within a matter of days because I don't lose the weight fast enough. I have a problem with instant gratification, I spoil myself and have to have things now not later.

Wasn't sure where to post this so put it here. Anyway, does anyone else experience this or have any advice?
