I sometimes joke that I have so many interests and hobbies because of ADHD. It is partly true, but in general I feel great motivation from 'things that amuse me / make me laugh / fascinate me' (while I'm completely unable to do things that do not amuse me or fascinate me)

Sometimes little seeds of ideas get planted in some unexpected ways. I was trying to think of why I suddenly want to learn to play flamenco guitar.

A few years ago, I randomly went to a concert in the Mission and I was extremely moved by it. It was Antonio Rey and Pepele Mendez, two world class musicians in the field. I did not know anything about flamenco (or about them).

I will probably never run out of things to do or learn, and I like that very much. It can be big things (like learn a new instrument!) or small things (like improve my handwriting).
