I've been playing with the idea of writing a post to talk about my personal problems, like my inability to concentrate on more than one or two big things that need doing, and how I feel like time just keeps disappearing on me, but I'm not sure if anybody would feel like reading such a post, or that it would bring something of value to the people here on Steemit...

Are you crazy??? That would make a great post! I'm fairly sure I'd have something to say on the subject once you sketched out exactly where you felt you were having problems. Also, you won't be the only person in this predicament, so I think the post would bring a lot of value.

I think you're in a slightly different situation to me because you are in education, so it is quite natural to wonder about your future self, especially with such a complex subject. It's not like you're taking a course to become a gas engineer whereby it's pretty obvious what you'll be when you finish.

I know there are already coins out there like Folding Coin which is trying to marry the world of gene sequencing and cryptocurrency together. Perhaps your ultimate goal lies in that direction? :-)
