In my case this behavior turned out to be an avoidant coping strategy for handling my fear of failure. If I don’t work on it, I can’t fail (or be judged on its end result), thus I’m safe. That’s level 1. Level 2 is to ask, why do I fear failure in hobby projects?
Another aspect is that because it’s all for fun, often the fun parts for me are the initial design and the process of figuring out that, yes this idea would totally work! The actual work of the implementation is the less fun part so I’m less interested in doing it.
TLDR: talk to a therapist about it, they can help you map out what’s happening, and by becoming self aware of the cause, you gain power over it.
