Keep trying new things. You are young and still figuring life out. Too many people settle and stop following their dreams and whims. Chasing opportunities is likely what you should be doing at the moment.

This doesn't mean be irresponsible, but it does mean listening to your "gut feeling" and knowing when it's time to move on.

I regret very little I have actively done in life, even the things that at the time seemed to turn out so poorly I thought I may not ever recover from. I do regret, sometimes very deeply, the things I did not do but knew I should have.

There is of course a balance in life, but you have time to find it. So long as you are not hurting others or putting yourself in harms way I would always err on the side of "do something new" - but that does mean finish the things you commit to. Both for yourself and others.
