  • I understand the feeling of being in limbo due to uncertainty like that. I’d say if you don’t feel strongly enough to commit to large things, then don’t. For the things that you do feel strong enough about to commit to, keep smashing it into smaller and smaller pieces until they’re manageable, then start to do them. There are tools to help with this process out there. And starting towards something can help clarify if it’s something you want to put effort into. You can also take on smaller, useful pieces of a larger goal such that even if the main goal is something you decide isn’t worth it, you can still get something useful out of what you’ve completed.

    I don’t really ever feel like committing to things, so I don’t plan things out like that. Sometimes things turn out well; I just kept doing my hobby I enjoyed and whoops I’ve been doing it for 20 years. Sometimes things go not so well but I try to quit things that aren’t working out early. And sometimes there’s real consequences. My life hasn’t been a straight line by any means. Nobody I know has had a life like that, though, even the planners.
