Just let it happen man.
Never, ever start a fight with yourself. You can't win. Because if you win a fight with yourself, it's always you who loses. The outcome is net zero.
It happened to me, it still happens. I killed a bunch, I learned a lot. Some of my trees are 20 dollar lessons disguised as plants. Now I can go out for lunch, pay 40 dollars for a sandwich, a coffee and two drinks and be none the wiser. That's two hours spent enjoying and pampering myself though. Worth my time and my money.
Plants in my opinion are no different. If you enjoy the process, the meddling and the work, and it keeps you occupied for a couple hours, what's that worth? Is that a bad thing?
Some people can wait patiently for decades. I can't. That's who I am. So I have a bunch of plants..
Sometimes, especially after some satisfying wiring sessions, I'm satisfied for a week or two. Then the itch starts all over again.
The real question I believe shouldn't be how to change your behavior.. But how to change the way you work with, and how you think about, who you are. You have a bunch of energy and motivation stored somewhere and you need to spend it at something.
Don't get me wrong on this, but some people have spent so much time working all their life, that they aren't really in touch with who they are. When they retire they find out that there's so much they can do in that time that they previously spent working that it can become difficult to figure out what's happening to them. It can feel like nothing makes a difference, that there's no contribution to something, running in endless circles.
Is that true freedom? To just be able to exist and be. I think it is just that.
Relax, roll with that tide and see where it takes you. You might be surprised how fun it can be.
