Cut down the number of tasks you're working on at once. If you think about it there's probably some that don't need to be done. Personal projects that you'll never see through can be dropped. Narrow down the most important and focus on them. Throwing something away isn't failure, it's a decision to prioritize.
It's an ongoing process which requires practice.
With focus you can practice finishing things, starting small. Finishing tasks feels good and leads to more things being finished.
If you feel lost or are having difficulty taking next steps it's probably a sign that you need to break up a task into smaller pieces. Try picking one small part you can do now and finish that.
Tangentially, you might also be interested in "Time Management for System Administrators" by Limoncelli. It's got a lot of good info about getting things done (in any domain).
