if you have an area where you are great at (better than anyone you know or heard of), put most of your efforts there, regardless of the expected payout or other considerations. Don’t wait too long, unused abilities deteriorate with age (yes, speaking from personal experience).
First off, if you are better than anyone you’ve ever heard of at anything, you need to read more about your field. But as a perhaps more relevant question, how do you do that in a more general field? I’ve always felt very good at strategy, and have been able to pick up related games very quickly, but don’t really care to be a professional chess/go/etc player. How does one,”Put most of their efforts” into something more general?
If you genuinely think you are the best in the world at a particular videogame, there are probably competitions for it which you could win fairly reliably.

Shouldn’t this depend on the area? What if I think I might be the best in the world at a particular video game?
