Can't Focus: Going Father Down the Rabbit Holes

[dfrecore]

It's been over 5 years now since I was introduced to this concept. It sickens me that I have done very little (if anything) to pursue a BS in psychology and a master in social work.

I am struggling with trying to keep myself engaging with a topic long enough to be able to test out of a class. I always come back to it months later, but I feel there is so much to learn and I have made very little progress in the wide spreed of topics in both area of study. It is not that I am not a curious person, I am just very curious about a lot of subjects and find it hard to focus on just the basics. 

How do you guys keep focused on what needs to be learned , and not go off into depths of details which is what you really seek then and want to know now. Thanks!

I would say that self-study is not your thing (mine either) so you need to do courses rather than exams.  And, you probably need to mix it up a little too - so do a GE and LL Major course at Study.com one month, then do a Sophia course, then do a couple of things from SL, then ModernStates, then OnlineDegree, etc.

I have used multiple course providers, and never "focused" on any particular area from month-to-month, except Math just because it was easier that way.  I skipped around from topic to topic, and provider-to-provider to try to not get bored.
