Hello there!

This is my first post in this forum, i'll try to keep it short.
I guess some of you were in the same place as me - I started multiple businesses, halfhearted to be honest, because an apparently better opportunity came around. Some made profits, some didn't. After failing three business (i'm only 22y/o) i put all my money in, i had to go back to a 9-5. Although I earn more than most people of my age
would dream of, it drives me crazy. 90% of my freedom i spent on learning about valuable topics necessary for a successful business and saved enough money to get going again. The thing is ... i spend so much time learning about different topics, figuring out what might work etc.. I am in the same position as before, just with a lot more knowledge and a lot moremature. I get more promising ideas for what to do every day, not able to make a decision. Even if i focus on getting forward in one project by learning the necessary skills, more ideas and ways of execution pop up on my mind, and I'm getting nowhere. Leading to the point to thinking that I'm too incompetent to get the work done. The only progress i see is that i accumulated enough knowledge that I've been able to help two of my friends' businesses get profitable, although they came out of nowhere, with no experience at all.
I honestly have no clue what to do now. What would You do if you were in my shoes ?

Greetings,
Alex

P.S.: Sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker.
