I've been struggling with this myself, so I thought I'd repeat it for other people that might be dealing with the same thing:
Not every hobby needs to be a project. Not everything needs to be a whole *thing* with a goal and an endpoint. It's okay to not finish something. It's okay to pick up something for a bit, explore it, start making something, and then drop it without making any "progress".
Productivity is capitalist bullshit that doesn't need to infect your free time too. Have some fun
Which isn't to say you can't have goals. If that helps you, go for it. My point is just that you don't need to measure yourself based on how far you get on something. You're still just as valuable and interesting even if you never finish anything.
So often I tie myself in knots because I feel like I need to finish a project that I've started before I move on to anything else. I don't need to. I'm allowed to dabble in something and then move on. This isn't a competition. This isn't a job.
Dude, she's six years old.
Also, there is no junk. There's useful raw materials that can be recycled into the next bright idea. :D
