There is hope for some of us, some of the time, to settle on our setup and be the true consumer of the setup we wanted (or ended up with). I too have multiple hobbies, and went into upgrades and changing of setups multiple times (for a few good years). But in the last year (fingers crossed) I have decided to make use of what I already have and enjoy. At least for a while. That covers biking, astrophotography, music production, music listening and movies, computers (hardware and software) and networking. In the end, I realized it was a lot of fun learning and doing all these, but spent little time being a user.
I have not changed my music or movies setup for more than a year now, and ignored the settings even when things did not sound to my liking. As a result, it seems that I focus more on the music than my amp, speakers etc.
Same with some of my other hobbies. My last bike only gets the minimum care nowadays, like tires, chain cleanup etc. It may break out of neglect, but prefer being its user than its mechanic.
I cannot promise myself that I’ll settle, as I may break that promise sooner or later. Maybe it’s curiosity or the need for exploration, but they are all part of life’s adventure.
