Practice
Living life as an artist is a practice. You are either engaging in the practice or you're not.
It makes no sense to say you're not good at it. It's like saying, "I'm not good at being a monk." You are either living as a monk or you're not.
We tend to think of the artist's work as the output.
The real work of the artist is a way of being in the world.
