Title really. I don't think I will ever have a traditional career (or path) because there are just too many things I want to do. Anyone with ADHD knows i'm sure, that when you even have so much as a few household chores to do, it can take you ages to even start. My problem kind of extends beyond the scope of little things, I seem to want so much out of life that it leaves me not wanting to do anything at all because it feels overbearing. I never finished college or chose a career because of this too, sometimes I get a goal in my head so it becomes my focus for some months then i get burnt out and move on to something else and it repeats in a circle.

Anyone else have a dusty box of arduinos and misc components they are absolutely 100% definitely going to make something cool with?

I have a handful of Raspberry PIs collecting dust. I think I told my wife I'd do something cool and automated 1.5 years ago and...well...yeah.

Run Tailscale on it and transform it in your own personal VPN ;)
