You’re not required to save the world with your creativity. Your art not only doesn’t have to be original . . . it also doesn’t have to be important.
But to yell at your creativity, saying, ‘You must earn money for me!’ is sort of like yelling at a cat; it has no idea what you’re talking about, and all you’re doing is scaring it away, because you’re making really loud noises and your face looks weird when you do that.
Recognizing that people’s reactions don’t belong to you is the only sane way to create.
