Discipline over motivation. You need to cultivate discipline rather than relying on spurts of motivation.

Any resource suggestions that I can look at?

Well here's how I did it.

Read everything on r/getdisciplined sorted by top all time. There are some good posts in there like No More Zero Days.

Read Atomic Habits. Great book about discipline.

And don't just read these resources, you have to apply them as well.

Starting is a rare skill set. Finishing is even more rare.

I’m going to guess that you are young (If so, my only advice is just keep doing what you’re doing. Start, get bored, start something else, get bored. Do it over and over again. Don’t stop.

Keep going until you find yourself into something that you don’t WANT to let go.

Life has a way of guiding you on its own. Just keep going until you find it.

There’s nothing wrong with you. You just haven’t found “it” yet. Which is just fine.

Keep going.
