Putting anything novel from your mind into the world is a success no matter what, it can’t be taken from you. If you’ve got ideas but feel like they aren’t translating when you go to create, keep doing it even if you think it’s not good or what you envisioned. From the stuff you don’t like, there might be something interesting to latch onto you can take in a new direction

every time I start any creative venture that actually finishes/gets to a place I’m happy with, it’s after chipping away every excess part of it in my mind 100 times over and can’t help but make the final idea into reality. creating for the sake of creating will lead you nowhere but a blank page.
(Side point: making something out of your heart and soul is easier than from your head. good ideas dont exist, only authentic and inauthentic ones. make only what’s real to you.)

Ideas want to be brought to life, and if you don't, someone else will! But also don't feel bad if someone already did the thing you wanted to do, you still have a neat perspective you can add.

if you’re ever stuck, just write anything. If the lines don’t make sense together, that’s great. If it sounds nothing like what you’d normally write, great! If it’s not very good, great. just see where your fingers fall on the guitar or piano, or where your wandering mind takes the melody and lyrics and finish whatever crap you’ve just come up with. Finish it in 20 minutes knowing you might not show it to anyone.
Sometimes you might end up finding a cool melody, lines or chord sequence that you fuck with, sometimes you won’t. But working from something’s better than nothing. You could sample it, repurpose it, trash it but you’ve got something tangible in front of you.

Ok stay with me here. Too much public filming. This is going to discourage good weird public activity. We need people being weird in public. Odd dancing, carrying around insane items, freaked out fits, etc. Instead of a quick vid to show your friends, or, god forbid, *get internet clout*, people should be sketching the scene and describing it in colorful language. Now you have to take accountability for your opinion on the matter, your draftsmanship and writing gets better, and the public freaks have plausible deniability in the job interview. This goes for drunk man on the street tik tok videos as well. Put on a newsboy cap and start jotting. There should be exceptions like intentional performances or heinous crimes of course. I’m open to other exceptions I just can’t think of any rn. This will never be a reality but i can try
