"Attention seeker", "he's got tickets on himself, doesn't he?", "show-off!", "he just needs to be the center of attention", "peacock!". Newsflash: it's natural to crave attention. And it's your DUTY to crave attention IF you have something valuable to share. Detractors will always exist. They represent the unavoidable friction and disorder that acts as a natural counterforce to a person's attempts to create order and achieve success. Ride their attention. Thank them for their engagement. Then, get back to creating (unlike you're detractors!)

As classical musicians, we prefer to suck in private. We don't emerge from our practise rooms until the likelihood we'll make an error rounds to 0. This is good for survival in the classical music scene, and this mindset might work for absolute outliers, but for the rest of us, just make your first 100 videos. The cool think about sucking: very few people will see your first 100 videos anyway!

You're going to get "put in a box" no matter what. You might as well tell people which box to put you inside! Don't be bashful. Don't be modest. Put yourself is a prestigious, highly-paid box. You'll thank yourself for taking the 5 minutes to do this. Liam
