    "In a forest a sapling looks up and sees it won't get any sunlight. So it changes course. Maybe just a few feet to the left, or right, and finds a hole through the canopy, and thrives."
    Dude, you couldn't possibly have tried EVERYTHING in your short life. There's so much out there you don't even know exists to do, that saying, "mediocrity is going to be my destiny from now on" is just plain silly. A whole shit pot of people don't find their "niche" until middle age or beyond, but have great lives seeking and trying.
    For fuck's sake, give yourself a chance.

      I suppose so, I can still find something I am relatively good at... but my problem is not that. The issue is that at this point, I would never be able to be exceptional at anything. I will never be the best at anything, because even though I am young, I am too old to excel at anything.

        I doubt that I can convince you that you are wrong, but you can. And if you give yourself a chance you will see.
