I was in your same position last year so my first advice is definitely; don’t fret. To truly enjoy something you need to focus on the subject itself, find joy in learning it (even if your not the best at it). Don’t force yourself to meet a standard or force yourself to complete it in hopes you’ll miraculously find your passion; take your time with it. My second piece of advice is to experiment! try out new things, head out and do that hobby you’ve always wanted to try, do that job interview at your local restaurant (you never know, maybe you’ll find a knack for entrepreneurship or cooking or even hospitality). Just like learning, finding your passion is a curve and it includes a lot of trials so don’t stress yourself out and start now!!!
