I've done all that many times. But once the monster bit me - I narrowed my focus.... Sure, I have other interests, but the monster doesn't allow for many....

never really, my collecting is not very focused; some sets, HOF types, Philly A's

I just go through spells where I concentrate more on some areas than others but I just set the others off to the side to be picked up later

My collection is very focused, but I have quite a few projects going so it always keeps me busy. However, when I first started out I must have changed my mind what seemed like a hundred times.

My focus will change from time to time. I will see something that really sparks my interest and I will focus on that set for a few months or even longer but sooner or later the monster will call me back.. the time away is a nice break and allows me to re focus on the bastard, I mean monster!
