So I had an official diagnosis of Asperger's back in 2015, and getting that was like a really HUGE thing for me. It put in to perspective all the many many things I was questioning about myself since I was a child. I was often labelled the naughty child or nuts or weird or the big one, as an adult 'attitude problem', depending on who you asked.
Anyway, my question isn't really about this or maybe it partly is..
So, i'm pretty sure I have ADHD as well as ASD, and it's really made(and is still making) my life very difficult. I have a hard time concentrating on anything that isn't a subject I love. I have started, and mostly failed, many many things over the years. The only thing I managed to finish (and that was with a lot of help from my wife) was my IT degree. I am moderately intelligent and am able to work out many complex things, but I cannot finish things I started, and this is the problem I so desperately need to figure out.
Living in the UK we are having probably the biggest financial squeeze we have ever seen and for the most part we have managed financially pretty well, but the last couple of years we have been hit rather hard financially and it if it hadn't been for the fact I had invested in cryptocurrency, there is no doubt in my mind we would be in big trouble now.
So the latest thing I really want to do is to learn how to trade, I still have some money invested that I can play with and I feel I could make it much more if I was able to day trade.
I'm quite sure I am able to figure it out, but I really really lack is motivation, and I have NO idea where to get that from.
And this is the same exact problem i've had for years, i've started many things, but have been unable to finish them, very likely due to ADHD and problem some ASD too.
So, any advice for me? I'm really open to any suggestion at this stage.
PS. If I am not supposed to ask this in my introduction thread then please let me know and i'll paste it to the general instead.
