Why would i pursue things i'm trash at and don't like? Just to prove that I can? Lol

Because you might find it’s really fun if you kept at it and learned the new skill?

Many rewarding hobbies take years of work to develop any significant level of skill in. Golf, racing cars, skiing, etc

Sometimes, yes. That's how I got into ultra distance triathlon. But I stopped once I proved I could, so maybe a fail. But I've also stopped more hobbies than most people have started, so tough to find correlations between liking something and sticking with it.
