The problem with that is that when you have 200 things to go for they become 0.1% each lol.
Just aim to be better than 50% in several and keep improving and one lands at 1% or less in some.
Aim in particular to land at 1% of math, physics, computing, chemistry and biology. Get over 20% in a number of other things too.
By that i mean know in them more than 99% of other people. That alone will help be better at many money making things and be securely employed and have overall happiness that comes with the clarity of how things work and what more is left to learn giving endless intelligent creative projects emerging that keeps you busy and happy and may even lead to synthesis of something significant.
If you get very good at something by earning it with effort great, if not then you will die a happy not bitter person that proved useful to society often and a good memory to others.
