29 y.o., software and philo dropout, jack-of-all-trades, lover of music, ADHD & depression, completely lost with respect to figuring out productivity and a career path.

If you drink, stop. Setup a schedule and follow it. No caffeine after lunch.

Lover of music? Playing or listening?

Outstanding commitments?

Start lightly exercising and build up this helps everything.

Setup a sleep schedule and don't use electronics two hours before you go to bed.

Have you completed discounted philosophy and software? Philosophy isn't my passion, but software is large enough for almost anyone to find their niche.

I'm a teetotaler fitness nerd who gets 8 hours every night and wakes up early.

My problem is entirely around my absence of career direction.

My two cents: be specific about what you want to learn
