I just wish some of the wannabees of today (and probably yesterday)
would take that attitude!
Seriously, I find people who are self-critical tend to produce better
music/art/photos etc. than those that think they are good.

On the other hand, my favorite artists put out a lot of crap; the thing they
have in common is that they wrote/recorded/drew whatever was on their mind,
and released it without shame. Maybe they come up with 1 in 50 things worth
seeing, but they keep the creativity flowing.
The other thing they have in common is that, while they had varying levels
of success, they did their work out of neurotic compulsion... but I pretend
not to acknowledge that.
