You wish to succeed and shine.
Do you really know what you want?
You cannot control the external outcomes of what you do. So why even think about them?
We created a world where those external outcomes are valued more than anything else. And thats our challenge today.
In a world obsessed with popularity will we do our work regardless of the consequences. Will we still make our art, even, if no body is watching?
Autotelic artists:
Look for them and you find autotelic artists everywhere. People who know that its not up to them to decide wheather there next thing will be popular or successful. People who know its only up to them to do their work. You cannot control the external outcomes of what you do. So why even think about them?
