Losing inspiration and faith...

Posted by Nyctophilia - July 3rd, 2018


I don’t know whether I have the inspiration or the motivation to continue anymore. I’m getting less than 20 listens on all my songs, literally nobody knows I exist and no matter how hard I try nothing ever gets seen by anybody. I’m seriously considering just stopping. I might finish Summer’s Here - EP and then give up and stop trying. It’s not like people will know about it. No one would notice I’m gone anyway.

hey no need to reach that high. do you really think the pro's started out with 20 lisseners? they probebly didn't. it is easy to give up like that and numbers matter in the beginning. for me it did to. i looked up to so many awesome artists and i was litterly the worst. i started to doubt my skills and if i was good enough even. and i desided to move on and even ask help. @EvanScale helped me alot with that. he helped me with my self asteem and how to improve. what to study and to keep doing what i love. i learned from him that it doesn't matter how good you are it matters that you like what your doing and if people like it that is great and awesome but what matters the most is that your enjoying yourself. 20 people is alot. you litterly got a whole classroom intressted into your work. when i do art in my class i can't even get 6 people to be intressted to be honest. your still not on NG for long and it toom me more than a year to get even noticed and now i am not even good but i love doing what i do and even am starting my carreer or learning process in something i love doing for a job later on. you just need to believe in yourself because you are worth it and those 20 people still care about you and your songs. it would be sad to see you give up on them. your still youngh and your grwoing you just need to keep going and not give up. i believe you can do it ^^ try to stay positive okay. i believe you in you.

I have realized that both your descriptions and your reply to comments are quite pessimistic.
You shouldn't beat yourself up because you think you are not as good as you want to be. You are young and have a lot of time to get better, study and practice.
I do not know much about creating music, but i listened to a few of your tracks and i honestly liked them.
It is ok to be modest, but being pessimistic slows you down.
Keep creating man! And what if your next track is not as good as you want it to be, or you get a negative comment... Focus on what you want to achieve!
Every track you create, every tutorial you watch, every book you read, get you a step closer, and you may not even realize it.
Stay positive! Try working on stuff that you really enjoy doing. Tracks that when you try to compose/create them you feel the urge the passion to do more! When you see criticism or work of great artists, focus on what you can and want to gain from these!
Enjoy what you do, and better quality and publicity will come in time for sure!
