ON THE OTHER HAND. I'm probably never going to be "good enough," so honestly, I might as well just do what I want and make sure I'm taking care of myself in the process.

I know myself well enough to know that I don't have any innate talent, so the important thing is to sit down and do the work. At the same time, I don't want to push myself too far, because I know there's not going to be any payoff for going the extra mile. Slow and steady might not actually win the race, but it has a significantly lower risk of injury.

For me right now, this means that I work on both writing and art every day for at least ten minutes each. I know ten minutes doesn't sound like a long period of time, but I've begun to realize that I will never really have free time - I have to be aggressive and make it for myself. If I'm lucky, I will start working and magically be filled with inspiration; but, since there's no reward for sacrifice, I think it's also important not to push myself too far out of my comfort zone.
