Like -- Just for an example -- I want to play every video game, so I end up not playing none and instead just fucking around online with stuff that doesn't require initiative. The only override I've found is involving other people, I always make time for an RPG session with my friends or for hanging out and such. But I have trouble starting stuff for myself.

What do?

Overwhelming choices and paralysis by analysis do that. You say you want to play EVERY game. That's a huge amount of games. There are so many choices it's overwhelming. Maybe try to at least narrow down to a genre? What usually works for me is that I'll just pick something at random and start playing. After that I'm good.
