Will I ever be extremely good at something? Or am I doomed to just be mediocre at everything I do?

I tried drawing, sculpting, gaming, speedrunning, science. I've tried a lot of things but I can't do anything better than average.
I've been spending tonight's insomnia watching a video on tetris world records (https://youtube.com/watch?v=mOJlg8g8_yw) and while I'm impressed by all the techniques and improvements the community has done over the years, it got me thinking. Will I ever do something so grand that I will get a prize? Or be recognized? Be talked about for my achievements?
Another thing about the video is that young people are participating in world records. Young as in under 20. I'm already over that and I haven't done anything extraordinary. I feel like my time has passed, even though a lot of scientists reach their peak when they're old (50-60+). I'm just really salty when I see people younger than me being popular, especially in the art community as that's my main hobby. And I know it's my own fault for not keeping a consistent fanbase and abandoning/switching accounts every few years. I have a lot to do now to keep up with everyone else and make up for the time lost

Took a long while for me to accept that not everyone can be super great at something. Now im just working on being content and at peace with myself even if I cant do much art wise despite so many of my friends being great at it.
