listen fat, no i used to have a lot of hobbies. i would draw, 3d model, i was into cars, i was played drums a band, self taught on guitar, i would make my own music on fruity loops, i would read neuroscience and philosophy books, learning japanese.

it really got me no where at all. meanwhile, i was thinking back to when i was like 16 and i lived abroad in japan for a year and my host sister was like 12 and wasnt a professional level concert pianist. and it really clicked for me exactly why that is.

if you ever meet japanese people you will find that they only have one hobby and they're awesome at it.

I only started focusing on art a year ago. in other words i was drawing poorly for many many years, but i have started dedicating my time solely to drawing only for 1 year.

this is a quick example of my art. I am not bragging that it's anything special, but i made more progress in the last year than i did in the decade prior.

so you can go ahead and waste your life on video games or whatever dumb shit you want. but don't sit around wondering why the japanese are so good at drawing waifus and westaboos are so fucking shit at it.

jack of all trades is a trap. when you're like 30 no one is going to be impressed that you are slightly above average at 5 different hobbies.

I've been drawing about 5 hours a day since quarantine. I wouldn't mind at all but cooking and cleaning dishes is gay. I think my art is benefiting greatly from being home though. Sure there are plenty of problems but it's more ambitious than I normally am.
