Another one of my manic behaviors is starting projects, most of which don't even get started, or are dropped quickly once started. Following is a list of many projects that seemed like a good idea at the time:
- learning to play piano (started but haven't played in months)
- learning to play harmonica (not started)
- creating a vocal recording studio (collected all equipment but haven't learned the software)
- knitting (I'm finally knitting again after neglecting it for around 2 years)
- sewing (what was I thinking? I failed sewing in school and I have no idea what I'm doing)
- collecting fashion magazines (I have a stack of around 50 unread magazines)
- acting (took some classes and bought a bunch of books over a year ago - haven't read the books and I can't afford the classes
- witchcraft (read the books and collected the tools needed to perform rituals which I haven't done)
- project management (started reading one book - no concentration)
- reading classics (no concentration)
- exercise equipment (am exercising sporadically)
- candlemaking (off and on...I need more supplies that I can't afford right now)
- yoga (practiced maybe 5 times)
- ballet (installed barre and bought new pointe shoes but is too hard on my back right now)
- singing (am actively taking lessons but not practicing enough)
- reading in french (no concentration)
- tarot (lost interest after a couple of weeks, need to learn the cards properly)
- songwriting (haven't even opened the books)
- blogging (sporadic updates, often can't think of anything to write about)
Estimated amount spent on these projects = $7650. No wonder I'm always poor!
I'd like to think that eventually I will be able to work on some of these projects when I'm stable, but who knows when that might happen. :(
Anyone else have a project addiction?
