I don't know if it's my apathy or what. I started a couple projects this year but I can't finish them. In college I managed to study every day to get thru each semester but now I can't do anything.

Yeah... I just don't have any motivation to do anything anymore. I think of all these things I could be doing. But realistically I know I'd be unlikely to stick with any of them assuming I even got started to begin with.

I've now given up every hobby I had (not that any of them really ever amounted to anything anyway.). Part of that is motivation. But it's also true that, in my case, I have rage episodes. Plus, I'm something of a perfectionist where my own work is concerned. So, if something doesn't go the way I think it should have, I'm likely to just destroy the whole thing. Better, to my mind, not to get into it to begin with.

Yep, same here. Things that used to be exciting and inspiring aren't anymore. Still, it seems things aren't entirely out of reach, at least if I didn't have to be in the rat race.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
