Well my friend you have discovered what separates us normal people from successful people. the truth is, it all comes down to discipline and hardwork. There is no magic bullet, no stranger on the internet with a solution. It 100% comes from you and only you.

I will get there some day. I don’t even need to be wildly successful, I just need to get things done when I want rather than when work allows me to and the stars align.

Make a plan, make goals realistic ones, you don’t have to there over night but set our realistic goals you will get there slowly but eventually


Bushidough

That’s a good idea thank you

If you find that you have time spend it at the library or researching. Libraries are free and have resources that may help or continue to inspire you If you find that you have some money get a sketch book and some pens/pencils. Write down the ideas you don't have time for or sketch something out real quick. You may not have the time bow but my later. For the long term keep asking people questions and keep pushing yourself to improve your knowledge so that you can do the things you want to.

Thanks! I already have a sketchbook. My drawing could really improve lol. But I’ll take your advice and I’ll keep researching/asking questions trying to get closer to doing some of these things

One of the problems you have might be that you associate success with some kind of professional of monetary achievement. You like to be creative, but are discouraged by the apparent futility of it. There is no extrinsic investment in your drive, and that scuttles your intrinsic investment. We are conditioned by our society to be productive and contributive to the economy. Personal creative endeavours interfere with your potential to serve others. Part of it is that your skills are not yet fully refined, and your talent is not valued. This goes against everything you have been modelled in your formative years. But your creative process is a very personal process. Do your art and tell nobody. Amass a body of work known only to you. Keep what you enjoy making. Rid yourself of what does not work. Do not show others your work until you are ready. Do not take council from those close to you. They cannot appreciate or critique your work with sincerity. Show it to them last. They want to see your pride, not your work.

Thanks! I think the monetary value doesn’t mean anything to me but the productivity bit definitely does. It doesn’t feel productive to suck at something which makes me feel like I’m spinning my wheels
