I'm at a point in my life where I'm making progress but I seem to have this never-ending desire to do more and be more.
My problem is that I have too much ambition.
People in our community rarely discuss this and I feel like it's because I'm one of the rare few who has this problem.
Imagine you have unlimited car fuel but your vehicle (skills and abilities) is average and fails to burn greater than 40% of the fuel. That's exactly how I feel.
If I could, I'd try to improve my vehicle so I could put the fuel to good use, however there's a limit to how much I can improve my skill, I just do not have the ability to get any of my skills to 1% level or even combine them to achieve something that allows my fuel to accommodate.
The best option at this point is to try and deplete my fuel (at least temporarily) so that I can continue to refine my skill and appreciate what I have in the meantime.
Symptoms I've experienced:
Any advice?

Symptoms I've experienced:
- Can only sleep 5 hours
- Constant movement, I need to workout/dance daily just to keep myself 'at bay'
- Easily get bored at office job, I'm in sales but I get bored of doing the same thing and meeting targets every month
- Constant urge to create something
Any advice?
