I'm 66. I've been an artist, designer, writer, coder, photographer, carpenter, and potter my entire life.

I can count on two hands the number of things I've done that I felt were truly good.

That's not imposter syndrome. That's just the way it is. It should never keep you from waking up everyday and making something.

That's what creation is. Never be satisfied with your work. But don't be miserable because you're not satisfied. Celebrate it.

Reminds me of that Heinlein quote:
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
