This resonates with me because I am fond of developing new habits and interests but hardly stick to any of them long enough to develop them fully. My girlfriend has complained about this a couple of times. In my defence, I have stuck to a few things in life (like writing) that has turned out to be beneficial. Getting excited about things is one way to life an interesting life. It adds colour to your life and I would encourage everyone to develop this type of curiosity.
I guess we have to make to for excess in our life. No one is perfect and I guess seeing a part of ourselves in that light reminds us of this simple fact. I have developed habits over the years I am not so proud of but I see their usefulness in a way and try to channel them in a positive way if that makes any sense.
The last two to three years has brought so much change, the pace is tough to keep up with, quite overwhelming for me. Yet, I'm trying my best to maintain some balance, starting from the habits and ending at lifestyle I guess.
