It took me 15 years for my music collection to become really incredible, from Fela Kuti to Bill Withers.
Knowing what a great bass sounds like, great guitar riffs, chord arrangements, drums, etc etc

Had I not started at a young age to hone my musical ear It wouldn't have been possible.
Most people who don't have a passion have simply missed the boat, you're not cultivating any new passions in your 30s and if you do, it might take till your late 40s for you to really see the fruits of it.

That's why i suggest you give your children an eclectic range of hobbies at a young age.

Even the sports that I know really well, I've spent so many years watching everything and anything on them for decades, even eras from before I was born.

It takes years, I say 10 years minimum.

Whther it's comedy, art, music, history, Game (women) it all takes so many years and you gotta start early

I just want to say something that all the “experts” here fail to mention

It may take time for you to truly enjoy something if you haven’t been doing it for a long time. That time can be months to years. The key is to keep at it even during the hard parts.

People here love to talk passion and leave it at that, not mentioning that before you enjoy it it’s going to be “work.”

Oh of course. But there is something about what you love. It never feels truly like work. Sure there is a bit of heavy lifting but it is always love.

Nah breh, strongly disagree

Passions dont have to be something deeply artistic

You can be into rc cars, mountain biking... traveling... diving.. climbing

It doesn't take 10 years
