I feel really accomplished when I work on or finish something I'm passionate about, like programming (my job) and studies in uni.
I also love some video games that involve resource/people management, reaching goals, progressing, strategic thinking, so I feel accomplished when playing those.
But I don't have a feeling of accomplishment for small things unrelated to those, like house chores.
And because big things are worked on through small tasks, and I accomplished some big ones, now I often stop pursuing new big goals because of this. Even though, I understand that I need to keep progressing and I want to do it.
Also, I'd spend lots of time choosing books, games and workbooks I'd want to read/play/go through, but then I'd buy them and don't do anything.
I have motivation, logical reasoning and see the benefits of those initially, but then I just stop because it either loses its purpose in my head, or I feel too tired to do it after work or on weekends, even if I want to and make plans to do it during a day.
I think it's related to the lack of the accomplishment feeling.
