I'm 25 right now and while that's not young anymore I think I still have a lot of time to pick back up and become great at the things I used to be interested in when I was younger, right?

I'm not like a complete waste of space of anything, I'm a college graduate and all that, I just wish I spent more time becoming great at the hobbies that I had that when I was younger.

Like one example is how I used to draw A LOT when I was younger and I don't want to brag but I think I can say I was pretty fucking good for my age, but I pretty much stopped drawing completely when I got to high school. I just know that if I never stopped drawing I would be professional level by now and I regret stopping a lot.

I started piano at 29 basically. I just turned 31 and Im already playing at a Grade 5 / early advanced level because I put in about 2,000+ hours in two years. Lots of music theory reading too and stuff. Just get obsessed. Make the decision to do it everyday. Remember that frequency of practice is the most important thing, and to learn enough about your craft that you are not wasting that frequency of practice by practicing in a stupid or unproductive way.

Your still plenty young at 25, plenty of time to pursue what you really enjoy, being able to apply that skill to a job you like is the real fun.

Life is a long journey - if you're blessed with good health you could still easily get another fifty years of honing your drawing skills.
