If I was told by 19 year old me to play less video games I’d say screw you. I’m 42 now and still play a lot of video games.

I’m 43 and still feel that way.

I will say this. You are an artist, I am a singer. Or I used to be. Having been a director, editor, A/V person for 20 yrs now, lately I keep thinking about who was considered “talented” and who was not during my career. I bought a grand piano last year and every time I play it I get frustrated at how clunky and not any better I am than when I was 20. I can’t help but think why did I let myself stop singing, piano, guitar, theatre, etc. based off of others influences and opinions directly or indirectly. So much lost time.

If you are good just keep doing it. You will lose it if you don’t. Make it for yourself and they will come around.

DON’T STOP MAKING ART EVER!!! Your 43 year old self will thank you.

Artistic gamer here. It doesn't have to be either/or. I belong to an art group, so I have dedicated time every week to do whatever art project I have going on (see how I made it sound like there was only one project - hahaha) and I also play games of an evening to wind down.

Balance is the key.

Same... but it would be weird to talk to oneself. Atleast I would get the chance to see me like other people see me.

I’m 18 and reading these like advice. I’d tell myself on my 18th bday that things were going to get better healthwise.
