(Really. Art isn't an inherent skill, any more than driving, cooking, riding bikes. Most "natural" artists are only "natural" in so far that they drew lots when they were little, and didn't care about people's opinions) RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Marxon - 06-07-2015 (06-07-2015, 04:35 AM)Surge Wrote: For God's sake ya cunts me and alpha are damn near the only people to post all day!Vote surge most important poster!

In a week's time you'll still be bitching about how you can't draw So just for one day, maybe close down Generic Sci-Fi Game 2: Now in Space, pick up a pencil and some paper, and actually try to draw RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Surge - 06-07-2015 (06-07-2015, 10:17 AM)Sankoro Wrote:(06-07-2015, 10:08 AM)Surge Wrote: I'm okay with that.Yeah nah Well it's either be disappointed in myself for not doing anything or I can be depressed that I tried and failed beyond my worst expectations, disappointed that I thought this time would be different somehow, and have a sore wrist. still okay with it.

No, it takes effort and perseverance Do you think I'm fantastic at art? No, I'm not But you know what I do? If something I like looks bad, I look at it and think, "This sucks but I can do better" That's literally it Surge You suck, but you can do better The only thing hindering your progress is yourself RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - SCN-3_NULL - 06-07-2015 ![]() RE: Avali Nexus Forum 1: A Cold Phoenix - Surge - 06-07-2015 (06-07-2015, 10:23 AM)Sankoro Wrote:One thing I've learned to do is just accept that I'm a failure and live with that fact.

No sense in the unnecessary added stress. Surge, unless you actually try then you'll get nowhere, and just posting "i'm useless ;_;" isn't going to help. I used to be like that, but then I grew the fuck up and realised it was pointless.

I tend to be less accepting of my lot in life or the futility of my efforts when depression sets in proper. Better for everyone that I just accept things and move on than sit around and whine.

Nobody got where they are by being complacent. It's a difference in attitude, not in capability, and you aren't going to get anywhere with your attitude.
