This isn't related specifically to art, but the General forum is closed, so...
also I hope posting this doesn't end with me making such a fool of myself that I have to make a new account again but here goes:
All I know is that I want to create something. No ideas whatsoever as to what that thing should be. They say "Only do things because you enjoy them", but I don't really enjoy anything, so does that mean I should never do anything?
I've also heard lately "Don't wait for your dreams, go out and achieve them ASAP", but I don't have any specific dreams. I'm currently pursuing a BSc in Geography, and an aptitude test I took told me I would probably enjoy careers such as "medical illustrator", "web developer", "editorial assistant" "economist", "art appraiser", "architect", "cryptanalyst", "video game designer", "writer", and "illustrator".
The only thing I enjoy is, sadly enough, consuming media. Video games, TV shows, books, movies, music, you name it. You might say "Why not become a video game designer/television writer/author/filmmaker/musician/etc.?" So let's go over them:
Video game designer
Video games have been a longtime hobby of mine, and I used to dream of making one. Two obstacles - first, I find coding mind-numbingly boring. Second, I have no ideas whatsoever. All I have to show for video game development so far is this '70s-style arcade game I made for a high school assignment a few years ago. Not to mention in only three months I'll be the same age Toby Fox was when he released Undertale, plus I'm same age as the developer of Lethal Company. Methinks that ship has already sailed.
Musician
I took piano lessons for about six years and have been out of practice in the four years since. I don't really see myself as a singer, so I supposed I could enter the world of electronic music production. However, the problem, again, is original ideas. In the ten years since I started piano lessons I have yet to compose a single piece that is completely original.
Illustrator
A little over three years ago I picked up drawing, and have made little to no progress since. Every attempt to learn the "fundamentals" via books and YouTube has failed. Again with the whole "original ideas" thing, all I have drawn is fan art of characters from video games and cartoons. I'll admit my primary reason for wanting to improve with drawing is so that I'll stop feeling so envious whenever I see a cool piece of art online made by someone half my age with a gazillion retweets. I was concerned that I wasn't enjoying the process and if that meant I should hang it up, but my psychologist said looking forward to the end result is good enough. However, 99% of the folks over at r/artistlounge would disagree with that notion.
Animator
I have little to no experience nor knowledge of what goes into animation; all I know is that I would love to contribute towards a Newgrounds collab one day (Sketch collab doesn't count).
Author
Reading has also been a longtime hobby of mine, especially narrative fiction and astronomy-related non-fiction. Again, the question must be asked: what exactly would I write about? The only story ideas I have are fan-fictions of TV shows I've watched, and the golden age of online fan-fiction ended years ago.
So what now? Should I act on my desire to create something, even if my ideas are vague, or should I resign myself to living as a consumer?
