That's normal! That's nothing to feel shame about. Being interested in a broad spectrum of things is a sign of a well-rounded individual.

So... try it! Imagine yourself doing one of those things. If you can't imagine it, go find out more about what the career itself is like. Try doing some amateur stuff in the field.

I started computer programming when I was a kid, so I kinda had it easy, but programming is a really broad field, so I still had the same issue in choosing what I wanted to focus on and specialize in. I thought I wanted to do video games for a long time, but then I learned more about what it's like to work in the industry, and I'm a lot happier with that as just a hobby instead of a career. I didn't think I wanted to get stuck doing web development, but I'm really good at it; I ended up finding a job that takes those skills in a completely different direction than what I usually think of when I think "web development." Maybe I'll move on from this someday, but right now it's satisfying.
