Maybe you will, maybe you won't bring this thing into being, I don't know.
It's hard to figure out what we should hold on to and what we should let go.
Is this thing yours? Is it something you've been told you should do and have internalized? Or what?
I face similar problems in my life. No matter what I do I wonder if this is pursuing my purpose in life. Trouble is, I don't know what that purpose is, or really if there is one...?
I generally settle on figuring that purpose is self-defined and that I am responding to cultural conditioning in thinking that I should have this idyllic purpose that informs of my actions.
With some things, we get in a funk and issues like these are just the straws that break the camel's back. They are just a face that a deep, turbulent energy takes when it manifests a form and pops out.
With some things, sooner or later, push comes to shove and we are forced to decide on a deep level to either pursue something fully or to completely drop it. That way we don't torture ourselves about it.
A possibility is that you work on a term using what you know to be your strengths while others are using their strengths to complement your weaknesses ... it doesn't have to be a one woman crusade.

Just some random thoughts.
