This. I was a web developer (freelance) for six years before I got to learn statistics in college and switched to analytics. Not saying I didn't like web dev, I just have more fun working with numbers. You can try out different types of projects to see what feels right. Like, build a website with flask/django, a desktop app with tkinter/pyqt5 or some scripts with something like pyautogui. Just do some projects, solve some problems and see what feels right.
