You probably tried all those hobbies once and gave up immediately. No wonder you sucked.

Tried learning to draw for months, tried learning Spanish for a month and couldn't do shit. Paintball I am still doing and I suck at it. So with hiking and music. Swimming is maybe the only thing I gave up easily on.

Maybe the only thing I don't suck at.

How the fuck do you suck at swimming and walking?
>>
Try being yourself, bro
>>
>>25338034
Just stick with what you like doing, regardless of your skill, it doesn't matter.
Also, practice is not concluded within a month or two, it takes years.

As long as you enjoy what you like you'll get better at it.

>>25338173

Boo hoo, nigger.
Skills take years of effort to cultivate. Drawing 1 once a week for 3 months isn't going to transform you into Michelangelo.

Holy fuck he was right. Nobody gets good at something new after months. You hardly tried at all simply because you thought it would come easily.
>>
>>25338183
There are but you'd have to be a special kind of retard to think that's everyone or most people. It takes time and effort to git gud but most of all mental strength, determination and willpower, what most robots are truly lacking in more so than anything else

Bad attitudes, friend.
Don't know what you mean by sucked. Don't know what you mean by tried.
Working out is just being persistent. Takes no talent at all. Start where you're at and keep going.
I'm not a great swimmer but it's part of my workouts and I enjoy it. Don't need to be "good" at it to enjoy it.
Sucked at hiking? WTF does that possibly mean? Hiking is basically just walking.
I've been shooting in competition for about three years. Not terribly good at it but I made a bunch of cool friends and have a good time.
Been a distance runner for many years. Don't win races but work ethic gets respect and again made a lot of good friends.
Get over the self-pity.

>>25338119
Tried learning a language for a month? I learned Japanese while living in Japan for four years and I'm still not fluent. You will not learn or develop meaningful skills in just a month.

>>25338034
Is there even competitive hiking?

> >Tried working out

you can have bad max lifts but you can't "suck at working out". You suck at working out only when you quit

You should try it again. It's one of those things that don't make you feel shitty if you fail because you can still swim around anyways.

Not OP, but I'm in a similar situation.

With writing and specific video games, particularly. I've literally practiced them both for years regularly, and my improvement was either marginal or nonexistent.

Just do something you enjoy OP goddamn. If you enjoy it it doesn't matter if you're good at it. Stop being a faggot.

Paintball is full of chads who can afford to play constantly. Also children with rich parents. It's kind of hard not to suck without a lot of experience.
>>
>>25342850
they do it because they fucking like it.

and as a result, they get good at it.

and then they have to listen to lazy faggots tell them that they were naturally good at it.

im not one of those talent-denier faggots but mere months is not long enough to determine whether or not have talent or not. so it's a big waste of time to "find your talent." just do what you want and hopefully you'll surprise yourself (protip: you probably will)

because you're comparing yourself to people who have written for decades, and to people who play video games 13 hours a day and who take the game seriously and not just flame their teammates

If i could i wouldn't be here

>>25338034
More likely, you didn't think you'd be as awesome as you expected, and called it "failure". Most likely is that you just didn't enjoy those things, you didn't put in the effort, and you ended up sucking at it.

Honestly, who cares if you suck at something? Just have fun with it, and people who disapprove of your skills will just have to deal.

Everyone I've done that I've gotten ok at has been because I loved it. I played tennis and suffered through being an absolute shitter that hit every ball out for months because I loved the game. Same thing with guitar and every other thing I do. You don't pick up a hobby because you want to be good at it, you do it because you like it. If you don't like anything then you're fukt, simple as that m8

>>25338034
Everyone sucks when they first start, you're supposed to keep with it. Talent is a fucking lie, the minute you understand this is the minute you get somewhere in life. Ambition is everything.
>>
>>25338183
Not really, some people a just more secretive about their training or have it at home when they're young.
