How can I become more intellectual and knowledgable?

Growing up, I struggled in school. I recieved a bachelors degree in communications because I thought it was the only major and field I could pursue.
At 25, I received a masters in both early childhood and childhood education, and now I’m a teacher. Although, I like my job, I can’t help but feel that I wasted my earlier years believing that I couldn’t do anything and not trying as hard as my peers. I am always comparing my friends who are engineers, doctors, nurses or lawyers. I feel almost ashamed. I’m almost 30 now and I finally love learning new subjects and remaining curious. In despite of missing out, how can I continue to keep learning new things?
Has anyone out there ever felt like this?
