How do you pick one hobby and stick with it instead of buying supplies and quitting?

There is a watercolor set in my drawer from January, a cheap guitar in the corner with two strings that are fine, and a running app I opened four times in March. I am not collecting hobbies. I am collecting almosts. Last Saturday I almost bought a knitting kit because a video made it look like peace. I put the kit back when I remembered the watercolors. I want one thing I return to when my head is noisy. I keep starting like a person who will become someone else by Tuesday. What made you stay with something boring long enough that it became yours?
