How are your struggles, circumstances, and skills any different from the millions of people who go out and create content? How are they any lesser? When you see people pursuing activities you could also have attempted, and done supremely better, you feel frustrated.
And it’s not that you are not capable, but that you are lazy. AND YOU DON’T BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AS MUCH AS YOU SHOULD. So the idea, and any potential it had, goes waste. You possessed the right idea at an opportune time, and owned the required skills to execute it, but you chickened out. You deemed yourself unworthy. Just try believing in yourself at times, and see where it takes you. Your concepts could turn out to be insipid; or ingenious. You have all the tools. Don’t be shy.
Work on the goals you feel compulsed to achieve. In the beginning, you may feel like you are failing more than progressing. Learn from the experience. And go at it again.
Surely when Peter Drury first started commentating, he didn’t speak as marvelously as he currently does. After decades of explicating football matches, he still works on his craft each day, and painstakingly makes cheat sheets (which contain information, facts and other details pertaining to the teams and the players) for all matches he works on.
Even then, every other week he is outshined by Jim Proudfoot, who upends him with his inventiveness, and his own brand of passion and musicality.
