I'm lost in life

I'm in my 20's and I've only recently started uni and I'm doing teaching. I really want to pursue a good and stable career, but I also want to get into animation, drawing and pixel art. The problem is I really suck at art and I struggle in my patience. I used to draw lots in the past but I suddenly stopped due to motivation and the only thing that's keeping me going in life is the idea of having a stable future with my partner. I don't know what to do in my life and if I should study some sort of art course and keep going with my teaching course. I know it takes time and effort and there is no shortcut in life, but I've always found it hard to commit to things when it really matters, especially now. I'm also scared to put my all into a creative hobby as I don't want to fully rely on that for a future income, as well as it being heavily time consuming.

FYI I'm studying teaching for a stable future and to prevent myself from being mentally stupid. I really want to be able to earn a good salary while not having to do manual labor. Essentially, I want to set my partner and I up for the future while being able to do a creative hobby.

Any tips or advice? Can anyone recommend any art courses or videos I can follow? Any help will be greatly appreciated and I'll be open for questions.
