I don't think in terms of mathmatical equations, I'm a very abstract thinker which makes me a good artist and musician. In programming, it's very straigh forward and precise...
This is a great misconception. The ability to abstract is probably one of the most valuable skills there is, espically when working on big projects.
Saying programing is straight forward and precise, rigid one might say, is like saying music is just about chords and notes.
Bluntly put, they're both crafts that when you got the basics down your ability to see beyond the current state and imagine the system as a whole is crucial.
If you enjoy it, go for it. By asking for input you have already showd greater apptitude for it than most.
