An electron jumps from the 3rd shell of a helium atom to the 1st shell. Find the wavelength of the emitted radiation.
lol
Well if you were enthusiastic and enjoyed it, then maybe it was a passion, though you gave up too easily.
A great skill to learn is to not do things for others, trying to impress people by finishing maths early or olympiad stuff only takes you so far. What do you get from it? "Oh you did mx2...
So what you're saying is you weren't really 'passionate' for those things, but rather your aptitude in them led to 'fame', popularity or other peoples interest in you and that's what drove you to keep going?
Because that's not something "rooted" in your subconsciousness. That can be changed.
Even though they purchase things like oils, books and crystal shit, leading to a materialistic view of them, they claim to reject consumerism for the sake of social attributes. So the HSC answer was right. (learning the whole topic now lol)
