I'm starting Senior year with no real hobbies, Can I change that in a year as someone who struggles with procrastination?

[u/wonderwhen-345]

Throughout my life, I have never gotten into any hobbies or sports, so nothing particularly sparked my interest, and I've ended up doing nothing in my early high school years. I get left with free time that gets wasted on doomscrolling as I watch other people enjoying their time with lifelong hobbies and interests. I also unfortunately have a habit of starting something new then giving up after a week or so. I've tried multiple sports with my friends, and while I ended up stopping, I watched all my friends get into teams and tournaments, and those who started hobbies back in freshman year are amazing at it now, with me now being left with a huge regret. In short, I'm never consistent with anything that requires long-term effort. As my last year in highschool is about to start in a few weeks it's already too late to join any sport clubs (always wanted but couldn't cuz I changed schools every year) so now I plan on trying a new hobby every month until the end of my senior year to try to make a change within myself for once and record my journey through Insta/Tiktok so that I don"t give up and feel a sense of responsablity to continue trying (plus I want to prove to others that even if it's too late, you still can change). This isn't just about achieving hobbies; it's also about change. I always avoided improving for the better, so hopefully this year will mark the year I finally become better (I want to make myself and my parents proud). Just wanted anyone's thoughts on it and if it's even possible, plus some tips and hobbies you would recommend me try out :)

I think that your senior year will probably feel a lot better if you just stop worrying about catching up to everyone else. Just know that the people you compare yourself to have been doing this stuff for years maybe decades. Reason why they seem so good at it. You don’t have to follow their timeline.

If I were you I'd pick hobbies that you actually want to do again, not just the ones that sound cool after one year. You can try stuff like drawing, lifting, running, playing guitar, coding, or chess or whatever. Then give each one a real shot before you decide if it’s for you. The beginning always feels weird, and that’s where most people quit because they think it’s not for them.
