Hi there,

This might be an off beat chance, but have you had a history of or ever looked into the topic of adult ADHD?

Changing several jobs, jumping between hobbies or projects is textbook ADHD, especially if you don't feel like you can get out of it and describe it as a "huge live hurdle".

That is the same for me. Got diagnosed at 30 two months ago.

If you have a suspicion you might have it, I highly recommend doing a quick online test and listening to podcasts around getting an ADHD diagnosis as well as personal tales from people who have it.

Especially the latter were a real eye opener for me and pushed me to get a diagnosis.

The point is, no amount of effort, book reading, motivational speeches or the like will get you out of this pattern.

ADHD is a neurological dysfunction, hence medication is most effective.
