I guess we are the same when it comes to jobs. I feel like I'm doomed forever to work and waste a mojority of my time working these stupid jobs. I'm not so sure that finding something I like will help anymore. I'll share what I'm interested in but I don't think it will help.
I did read a part of it on amazon.
The only thing I can think of that was interesting g to me was cartoons, playing pretend, and videogames. What stood out for me when I was little in cartoons was talking animals or cretures. Nowadays I watch all cartoons. I'll watch anime sometimes.
I'm not interested in videogames like I used to be. However I still play final fantasy 10 for the creature designs. Sly Cooper and Rayman Origins and Legends for that cartoon style.
The one thing that stood out for me was I wished I could draw that stuff, but I thought I had to be born with the talent. I also would like to create something like a cartoon or video gameor something along those lines. Then took a painting class in college. I thought I was going to fail because I couldn't sketch. the professor had to help me. He didn't help anyone else in the class. I picked up a book and learned enough to get through the class so he didn't have to help me with sketching anymore.
The problem here is that I keep going in circles because I didn't start at a young age, and it takes years to get good at drawing, and I can't make money at it right away. So I start drawing, get depressed that it will take years to make money at it, then I stop. Theres other stuff involved too like compititon, not making as much money as I would like to make, working on so many projects you don't want to draw your own stuff, etc. Then the big question of how is this really going to help people? It just doesn't feel like it could contribute to the world. Let's not forget about my huge battle with procrastination. Sigh...... It's just a lot to deal with.
