I think my problem is not that I'm aiming to high or dreaming to big. It's the fact that I'm only looking at my creations from a fame perspective.
It's the fact that as I'm creating I'm thinking "how can I be the next Stan Lee? How can I be the next Rick Riordan? How can I be the next Gorge Lucas?" And I really shouldn't be
Do you think those people went into creating their worlds thinking about how rich and famous they would get by doing so? Probably not.
I need to focus on why I'm creating my creation in the first place. I need to look at it and think "why does this make me happy. Why is this worth putting time and effort into"
I know fame is alluring but it shouldn't be the end goal. My end goal should be creating something that will bring me joy. And if luck and skill would have it maybe it will bring others joy too.
Sure fame is nice and all but there should be a balance. It shouldn't be the defining goal. It can be one of them, but I don't think it should be the main on. At least in creating like art and writing.
I put so much pressure on myself and I think I need to just chill a little bit y'know
