If I want to achieve something then I find the joy in pursuing it, at which point I will naturally do it when I'm capable and will do other things when I'm not.

Letting my attention float around freely (within limits obviously) often looks like I have a low attention span. However, with a birds eye view on what I'm able to get done I look like I'm hyper focused.

And if I can't find the joy in a long term pursuit then it's very unlikely to be worth my time.
