    Why not try them all? Focus is always something that everyone needs to work on. I myself always have a ton of ideas and things I want to pursue, but by trying to do them all at once I’ll stretch myself thin and end up doing a poor job. You can still pursue it all, you just need to dedicate time and effort to each to determine what you’ll want to pursue further.

    John Lee Dumas has a great acronym for FOCUS which is Follow One Course Until Success. Start with something that really excites you, regardless of the effort it takes to build. Don’t do anything just because someone else says you should, instead pursue your curiosity. I find that building a project tends to yield the best results. Find ONE thing that you’re really interested in learning about or becoming better at and build a project around it. Once you feel you’ve “quenched” yourself with that move on to something new.
