When I joined this forum, I found a thread with a link for a personality test on 16personalities.com and found out that I am an ENTP. I didn't go further besides reading the info on that website. Last couple of days I noticed that @Mattie knows quite some stuff about personalities so I asked her and she gave me a couple of links to books and articles about ENTPs.
I found also some funny things like ENTP problems and one of them is as follows: "You go on your laptop to check your email. You read one email. 3 hours later your email tab is still open alongside 15 others. Your email still hasn't been fully checked but you now know 4 new Portuguese words and have 20 additional books added to your reading list."
Right now, I have two different instances of Google Chrome, with 8-9 tabs each, 4 books next to me, 6 books on my desktop, Android Studio opened, 7 Excel sheets with ideas, resources, websites etc. I multitask often as possible but this has led me to think about it profoundly. I can't do one thing and that thing only. When I do dishes, I listen to a podcast or watch something on my cellphone next to me. When I was in college, I used to watch a movie while studying. I eat only if I have something productive to do at the same time. While this can be good, it can be pretty bad also. I have certain knowledge and interest in writing, psychology, Photoshop, different programming languages like Java, C#, VB, PHP, mobile development, website building, hacking and I tried a lot of things; martial arts, dance, photography, just to name a few but I mastered nothing. My problem is not that I am not doing, it's that I'm overdoing it. That's why we start a lot of things, but don't finish them; we want to do everything.
I never had a startup business, I have no experience. So if I start 3 things at the same time, I am destined to fail. I just can't seem to pick ONE idea and proceed with it. Need some advice and you as a community give very useful advice to everyone, from beginners to experts.
