This is what it’s about IMO. Find something that is really hard that you are bad at to mix things up and make life new/challenging. I took up rowing in the off season last year, I still suck so bad but it’s still motivating. I could probably focus on it for 5+ years and still suck compared to the folks who did in competitively when young.
And I’m pretty terrible at golf, but it seems like another one of those things where the learning curve gets really, really steep once you’ve grabbed the low hanging fruit.
