I need to stop being disappointed every time I don’t show up on a perfect stranger’s rec list.
Dear self: You do NOT ACTUALLY NEED to be the universally-acclaimed head of a field to be making good art that matters to people and does what you want it to do.
# brene brown describes this toxic mindset beautifully, #‘if you’re my fan how important can you be? I want to win over the people who hate me’,# this is a bad idea,#and i try to remember,# the love and appreciation of my friends and the people who like my work,# matters more than the indifference of strangers
aww Star I love your Letter to Self and identify with it strongly
