Undiagnosed here, seeking some inspiration and will to not lose hope.
Had anyone successfully gotten in tune with your ever changing hyper fixations?
- If so, how long do your fixation periods last?
- Do you have a structure or benchmark after which you can effectively “close that chapter”?
- What strategies do you have to nudge yourself towards topics which will be meaningful in the long run?
I tend to go from rabbit hole to rabbit hole but it never feels like I’m in control. These fixations never produce any meaningful outcomes and always have a cost which I pay for by neglecting other aspects of my life.
It is a superpower and a weakness as you all probably know. It’s great for expanding your interests and appreciating life through different perspectives. I don’t want to lose it and want to get into some harmony with it. Anyone had any success?
Thank you :)
Nope, yesterday I was telling my wife how my pile is absolutely overflowing and I’m drowning and overwhelmed.
Today I started a whole new business.
Oof the urge can whelm… stay strong!
Good luck with the business🤞 Maybe the external accountability helps keep the momentum going!
Thanks! Yeah I already own a distillery now it looks like I’m also getting into personal health products.
I’m a serial entrepreneur so this is just par for the course. There’s a feeling I get when it about to happen again, but this time I was like “not now I’m overwhelmed!!!” But you can’t do much to stop it.
Ultimately because I have other things filling my cup I will have to do this differently, which might actually be a really good thing - instead of having the attitude “do it all myself” it’s gonna be “get help and outsource”
