In fact, there are so many worse things you could be than a bad artist. Literally no one is hurt by you making art that happens to not be good. Please stop torturing yourselves because you think you're not "good enough" for your success. It's not a crime for people to like art that isn't perfect!!!

It's hard, because I'm constantly targeted by trolls who say it sucks. It stings, especially when I don't make sales.

And you will be doing better art after a lot of bad art. Nobody was born knowing how to do perfect art or something, you need time and experience to improve and learning.

Yes this. Recently, I was reading a manwha, that was "objectively" not as polished as many others and yet, the happiness I felt reading it was one of the highest I ever felt. I stopped trying to understand why and just enjoyed the ride!

Damn. I need to stop apologizing for my stuff, huh?

I like the Bob Ross mentality when it comes to "flaws" or "mistakes" in my music. I have found SO MANY golden opportunities to make songs even better by making "mistakes" and "getting it wrong"

The issue for me art-wise mostly is less that I'm not good enough for me (though that's an element of it,) and more that it's not good enough for others to make it a success. If it's not just unreasonably super objectively good, people don't really give me the time of day about it. 😕
