About the boat. Dreams are sometimes more interesting than reality.
No.
Your reason seems to be different but...
I find that most people actually want to be social with their interests but find it really difficult at times. When you're in a group you may have to engage in your interest in another way. Sometimes it makes things easier but sometimes more difficult. This is why most people say that they like their interest as long as they don't have to be social, right?
And that is what this professional talked about.
Some people don't have a bigger goal than eg just reading about ants. Some people have bigger goals like learning five songs that can be performed. It is easy for people to be more like the first guy and never really have specific short or long-term goals. They engage in an interest in order to relax from the difficulties in life. I don't.
Will the first guy.ever be good at what he/she is doing? Perhaps. The person might even become a professor. We don't know. There are dofferent ways of engaging in an interest.
But I think most interess aren't about being very good at something.
