Heck, I'm 52 & still haven't decided. It's tough when so many things interest you, but sometimes taking a few courses on the subject will give you an idea of how much you'd enjoy learning more about it. You may find something initially interesting but as you go into depth on it, find you don't want it that specialised.
It also helps to narrow down what interests you & check out which one makes more money, is more in demand, & what branches off into other fields too (in case you'd like to change directions slightly or the job market won't bear that job anymore).
While I'm interested in too many things to ever want to specialise, I find I keep getting drawn back to plants, horticluture, things like that. My other interests I just turn into hobbies (sciences, math, history etc).
