all you've got to do is keep working at it! I'm having trouble with these thoughts myself and one way might be to try joining more furry sites to spread your work further! sofurry seems to have done wonders for drack I've heard

You're gonna work hard and soon it'll pay off. But the first step is to not compare yourself to others. The only standards you should be trying to make is your own and no one else's. I'm sure you're great at what you do, so just keep going at it.

On a side note, I'm Mizu Astrum. HI TWIN! =3

no matter what you do you will always find people you think are better than you (unless you're very big headed) so i wouldn't worry about it and just focus on you're own stuff.

Silly man you gotta keep searching till you find what you really love and then let yourself fall into whatever the hell that turns out to be =^.^=

Ah...getting lost in the seas? all i can say is you need to fight the waves, make a name for your self! you'll get good.

"I want to stand out, but at the moment I'm having trouble seeing why I should even start. "

If you don't, you never will.

"Is there really a difference between being bad at something and not being good at something?"

Absolutely. You'll likely never be the best at anything, and god knows I never will be. There's a difference between being bottom rung and being relatively decent -- aside from just the fact that you have to start somewhere.
People don't just care about "the best." The "best" may be at the top of a heap, but that heap can still be made of some very good things.

"Kichi is steadily growing in popularity."

.... I am?!

Seriously, don't get discouraged. It takes a lot of work to get GOOD at anything -- you do not get good by quitting because you're not magically "the best" straight away. Practically speaking, if someone is good at something, credit their focus, drive and how often they practice. It ain't genetics.

You start off crap and you stay crap for a long time, improving slowly over time. The only variable is how long that time will be (varying between "a long time" and "a fucking epoch"). That's how it is. Period. You want to be good at anything whatsoever, you have to work for it and believe in yourself. It'll be difficult, and you'll hate 90% of whatever it is you produce. But it's the only way ANYONE has ever gotten good at ANYTHING.

There. Figured this, and you, deserved a proper response...

You know, they say that the good stuff comes with hard work, maybe you want to give up. But the thing is that I am the same...but I guess we all have our bad points. But WE got to keep going, cause if we enjoy what we are doing, we shouldn't stop :3 Good luck with your stuff and I will watch you! Go fast and far :3
