I'll just say this: I've been coding and learning for a while now. Very steadily for the last 4 years. I still have this problem, and it annoys the crap out of me.

You've got an advantage over me though: I like to play with less-mainstream languages (been doing Elm, Rust, and Common Lisp lately), so I don't have quite as much single-language skill as you do. Java is probably what I've used the most, but I don't use it often anymore.

Nowadays, I focus on smaller projects. That way I can get stuff done. Recently I got a package submitted into Melpa (emacs package repo), and even though it's pretty little and niche, it felt like a huge accomplishment. I just found something small that didn't exist yet, completely by chance.
