I don’t work in mathematics but my work strays into another STEM field, but every now and then I watch this short clip of Sir Andrew Wiles and think “fuck me, maybe it is achievable”.
To be fair, Andrew Wiles solved a problem that had stood unsolved for over 350 years. The best mathematicians in every generation since the mid 1600s could say the same thing as you! Should they not have picked math?

Absolute legend, that man.

“I cleaned up for the interview! Normally I need a lot more to be accessible!”
Makes me think maybe I shouldn’t have chosen math, I am not even 1% as smart as Andrew Wiles
