Does anyone here have problems with their interests constantly changing? Like really getting into something for a while & then suddenly losing interest in that to take something else up?

That has happened to me in the past. That's actually what kept me from starting college after high school, and once I did go, as soon as I finished my associates, I felt that that subject, accounting, wasn't what I wanted to do. I switched to elementary education and did that for a semester, then lost interest. I've worked at the airport, in offices, doing customer service, reception. I've wanted to be a limo driver, a stenographer, an antique re-upholsterer, a sign language interpreter (I took a whole class on that). Each thing I was very interested in and went through searches to find out how to do them, only to lose interest.
I got stuck in the monotony of receptionisting for so many years, just because I knew how to do it. It's only recently that my passion for cooking has come out. When I was younger, I'm the one that mixed up the cup instead of the teaspoon when adding cream of tartar. I'm also infamous for my first try at cooking for in laws, and making a meatloaf that turned into soup. We called out for Chinese.
