Is it normal to want to be an expert at something?

I don't even know what, I just want to be an expert at it! Whenever I see experts talking about something I get a little jealous because they're an authority on a subject and I want that but it seems impossible.

IIN?

Bonus Question: Should I just make something up? Because then, of course, I'd be the only authority.

    It's good to have a skill many begin as hobbies.

    I am very talented in something. However sadly it is almost impossible to make money in this field. So my talent is useless.

    Pick a subject that interests you and maybe get a qualification in it. You know some might say I am an expert in what I do however people usually only take my advice because I have the degrees to it up.

    This is a good example of humans being too competitive.

    I am envious as well with top competence. The people who are the masters of their craft.
