I wish I had paid more attention to how I liked to learn before choosing a major. Being interested in a subject is a good start, but the everyday work matters too. Look at whether the courses involve reading, writing, problem-solving, group work, or independent projects, and consider which activities you enjoy. Ask current students what a typical week looks like, especially in upper-level classes. Also, find people you can study with and ask questions around. You do not have to learn everything alone, and you do not have to enjoy every course for a major to suit you.
