A creator's work should be measured by their love for it and offered as devotion to God, not by metrics or audience approval. The only thing you control is effort. Frame creation as an offering to a higher power and stop compromising your art for others' preferences.
That's what people think. It's like, just because I like it, that doesn't give it any value. Like, as an artist, if you like it, that's all of the value. That's the success comes when you say, I like this enough for other people to see it, not other people like it, so it's successful. That doesn't mean anything because that's other people liking it is out of your control. All that's in your control is making the thing to the best of your ability. It's all an offering to God. And if you're making an offering to God, you're not thinking about, oh, 'What's the budget?' or 'I hope this segment of the audience is gonna like it.' We don't think like that. It's a higher vibration. We're making the best we can make to the best of our ability out of love and devotion. That's what it is. And there is no 'I'm changing it for someone else' because it can't be better than this devotional act that we're doing.
