Yes! I learnt to be a terrible singer way before I learnt to be any good. I'm still not great but people like what I do now.

This is the most important thing when it comes to mastering something. Being bad or great at something are two sides of the same coin and cannot exist without the other.

You are Heavy Devy, you are already an icon in so many people’s eyes and ears don’t think we don’t know the sacrifices of time you have put in. You sir are an absolute national treasure.

That is great advice from a true artist, I’m a visual artist, the same principle, Devin describes, applies there as well.

I grew up with a major problem of perfection. If I couldn't be "great out the gate", as I was raised to be... I just wouldn't try. I got tired of that mentality so I decided to learn something that I would never be good at. I picked up a guitar, with sole purpose to just enjoy being terrible at something. With a bit of unexpected irony; the very first complete song I'd ever learned, was Karma Police by Radiohead. Turned out I was not as bad as I'd feared. (but I still do suck at it)

Still can't figure out how to make my snare not sound like shit. Always sounds either super wimpy or just an indistinguishable mess.

100% - You never stop learning. You have to get over criticism and use it for your craft. Its the one job where you get sh*t on until its not so... Shi**y?

I solve that problem by making objectively shitty music. Oh, you think I screwed up there? I know I did. You didn't like the latest ADHD industrial noise I put out? Lol, neither do I, that's why I didn't save a copy. But you listened to it & it did something to you. I forgot about it and made eight more -- enjoy!

I’m going through this as a painter. I’ve been painting casually as a hobby my entire life, now I’ve chosen to drill down into it and get serious about learning how to become a great painter… it’s been humbling but the first step was to really look at my work and be honest about the fact that it sucks 🫠
