Maybe you don't need to. These are games, for leisure, not your job (ok unless you're a gaming youtuber or something). The completed game doesn't have to be submitted to your manager on Monday morning or else. Many games just get harder and harder as you progress (and even those that don't); just play until it stops being fun then move on. Save the stress for the job.
With how ADHD plagues some people, if a story isn't finished, it can cause a lot of stress and anxiety. Obsessive loops of thinking about what could happen instead of focusing on life.
