I feel that way a lot, and I've been that way for as long as I can remember. Occasionally I will get obsessed with something and spend a lot of time on it, but the default is procrastination. Motivation has always been a huge problem for me. I tend to waste a lot of time on things that I find mildly entertaining but that has no intrinsic value (like play mindless video games) and ignore stuff I really ought to be doing. My excuse is often that I'm feeling down and don't want to push myself too much.
