I’ve recently come to learn how many people I know have secret talents, hobbies, side hustles, secret academia, etc, that essentially set them aside from the average person.

I’m not particularly artistic, or sporty, I have average academics and I work a normal job with nothing I’m good at enough on the side to earn me extra money. 

I feel I’m realising how average I am as a human being, unimpressive and almost without any talent. I tried arty stuff years ago and during the pandemic - I obviously stopped because what I was doing was just average. 

These people paint in their spare time and do such creative hobbies - I know the obvious answer is to pick something up and try it, but I feel defeated before even starting. I’ve never mastered anything in my 24 years of life so far, what’s going to suddenly change now?
