I wonder where this guilt comes from. It seems highly illogical, yet very common. I've had to learn to ignore it with books and video games.

- XCSme 4y agoFor me, it's somewhat about thinking "I am not good at finishing things". I want to be someone who "gets things done", when I should actually strive to be someone who "quickly lets go of what is not worth spending time on".
- JohnFen 4y agoYes. Not everything is worth finishing. Trying something out and dropping it if it doesn't work is just as important to be able to do as being able to finish things. We have a finite amount of time on this earth, and we can't do everything. If we never "test out" stuff and drop it if it's not for us, we'll be unable to discover a lot of things that are excellent uses of our limited time.
