“ Don’t make stuff because you want to make money, it will never give you enough money, and don’t make stuff because you want to be famous, because you will never feel famous enough. Make gifts for people and work hard on making those gifts in the hope that those people will notice and like the gifts. Maybe they will notice how hard you worked, and maybe they won’t, and if they don’t notice, I know it’s frustrating, but ultimately it doesn’t change anything because your responsibility is not to the people you’re making the gift for, but to the gift itself.
