Any of you got tips on how i can stay in focus on what im doing? Cause sometimes i want to make games , sometimes i just want to play games with friends, sometimes i want to animate, sometimes i want to make special video effects, sometimes i wanna make youtube videos (Real content and not to drive traffic to a offer or something), and sometimes i wanna make money with blackhatworld methods. Like cpa etc

And this changes all the time, its hard to control it. A day ago i planned making a hack generator website for a youtube video. But right now, i just wanna do something else. In my head im telling myself that i should instead be making games. I've been in this situation before, and when i started making games again, some days/weeks later i wanted to do something else again.

If anyone asks:

Q: Can you do all of these things you mentioned above?
A: Yes

Q: Are you good at all of these things you mentioned above?
A: Hell no (except playing with friends, thats pretty easy)

Maybe one day ill be good at most of the things i mentioned above, i hope

Do you have any tips to stay in focus?
 
I feel the same way here and there.
What do you feel like you want to do at the moment?

I would recommend keeping that mind set and start learning everything you want to know about that certain topic. Start researching and finding everything you want to know about it.
It takes a lot of time and commitment to see an outcome in my opinion. :)
 
You're exploring and indecisive.
I'm not sure if it's normal or not, but you should find a partner or a group of people who dedicate themselves in a single area (e.g. developing games) and then for many months/years only hang out with that crowd. If you stay together you can work on a common cause and not bounce around.
 
I don't think it's a problem, why don't just keep doing things u want to do at the moment? Isn't it better to do something when u enjoy it instead of compelling urself to do something?

Right now i feel like i wanna make some games/apps, or just play with friends.
 
I have the same problem.
I have many blogs, I always confuse which one to update.
In the end of the day, none of them updated

As long as you're more or less happy with what you've done at the end of the week, you may just follow your heart.

I've tried many methods to focus more, checklists, pomodoro, whatever. They don't work for me. One day I can work 10 hours non-stop and feel super energetic, another I just won't get anything done. But overall I work a decent number of hours and the time I take off helps my brain organize stuff and come up with new ideas. Do what you like and get back to your keyboard when genius strikes.
 
you're probably quite low in trait conscientiousness. slowly work on adding more structure and planning to your day.
 
First, you need to prioritize things based on what you are interested in most.
sometimes i want to make special video effects, sometimes i wanna make youtube videos (Real content and not to drive traffic to a offer or something)
If you love making youtube videos then go for it always even if you are not good at it, in time that will come too. All you need to be creative and follow your interest. :) Hope everything will come in the way.
 
Kind of my plague too - there are just too many things that interest me! The problem is my attention span - hell! Even the number of open BHW tabs is out of control.
But then again if I compare myself to myself year ago instead of others I can see that it's not just chaos and there are definite improvements)
 
It's totally normal to feel pulled in different directions! That's no problem. However, in order to make sure you're progressing in one direction or another it's important to have *goals*. These act as milestones to check if your "random walks" through your activities are actually propelling you in a positive direction.

Try the SMART goal framework on one of the things that interests you right now :)
 
Stop looking for motivation from strangers on an internet forum and just fucking DO IT.
 
jerk off less.
follow advice. stop laughing. thank me later.
 
I had the same problem and what helped me was downsizing the number of task to 2, then intrecalate between tham until the job is done, always setting schedules first
 
its cuz u dont eat well u just eat taco bell n mcdonalds and do shit u no exercie... ooops thats me!!! :(
 
Going to the gym even for a bit just to run on the treadmill helps clear my head.

Stop eating so much processed food. Drink more water. Read a self improvement book
 
My biggest issue with hopping between projects used to be leaving every task at around 80%.

I do find if I force myself to work on one thing when I want to do another I'm not as productive, so instead I aim to complete the tasks I start - eg I can work on the distracting project/idea provided I can get it to a particular stage before I stop. If I'm not able to commit to completing that, I"m not allowed to change tasks and I push on with what I'm 'supposed' to be doing.
