Default Re: Question for creators

Allow me to be a bit blunt just for the sake of keeping it real. Chances are you're still relatively bad at whatever you're trying to do (in this case making music). The problem imo is not accepting that possibility, and expecting from yourself something that sounds great right off the bat. Just like many things in life, you start bad, you work hard and study on a regular basis, and you become good. The amount of work required varies from person to person depending on your innate skills or ability to learn quickly; some have to work more to get better. But at the end of the day, the best thing you can do is accept your skill, and use that positive/realistic mindset to motivate yourself for the work you have to put in. It's not always an easy thing to do, but what can help is to take time to reflect on what you learned every now and then. If you're trying to make music semi-blindly just throwing sounds and samples without much knowledge of how music or sound engineering works, you simply cannot expect to randomly come up with a masterpiece; it happens, sure, but it's very rare and not realistic.

Good luck with your creative journey, I hope you manage to shift your mindset to a more positive and productive one. Can't wait to hear the results of it ^^
