Separate yourself from your work

Please see, you are NOT your work. Your work is simply something you do and lets be honest, there are a lot of unproductive things you can be doing so, you should be proud of all of your works. Proud and content knowing you’ve invested your time in a well intended way, to better your world or at least make it more intriguing, this in and of itself is a noble cause. Allow your art to be what it is and appreciate it for that. Serving the creative process is a noble cause and the only way progress is ever achieved. Your work is a service to those who will experience it and an example of the respect an honor you have for the gift of creativity. You are NOT your work, you are simply an instrument of inspiration dutifully serving a noble cause. In this way you not doing a service just for yourself but for humanity.
