I like programming and was quite good at it. In fact, people bugged me to start a company based on a website I'd built until I gave in. 13 years later I've been a "manager" for all this time, still rather bad at managing people, but successful enough for 7-figure dividends. I can't say I regret trying it and not focusing on my strengths instead (I'd probably be a somewhat highly-paid employee in tech somewhere if I had done so). Also, I can still program every day and enjoy it.
