I would say follow your heart. What do you like more? Python is a general purpose language, if you know the right tools you will be able to do just as much as you would in C++. Remember, never treat Python as a language worse than other languages. Don't prioritize low level languages over high level. Both have cons and pros :) My personal experience: I started with Python, then I learned C#, C and all the web languages. Now I put everything to use ;)

python is a bad language for competitive programming in my opinion. some problems that needed speed would make even the most efficient python code to fail, making it unsolvable in python. i would recommend you to use c++ for its speed and the great amount of library it has. this is also what most competitive programmers use in big competitions.
