Doopa, you have the rare privilege of having a dream that you have the capability of pursuing. Don't take it for granted. You want to be an artist, and you are able to produce work worthy of having your name well known and respected.
Being a sucessful artist doesn't have as much to do with talent as you think. Just like any other business, a lot of it is just shmoozing and games. And self confidence.

So I think you owe it to yourself to work hard on your dream.
I work hard at it everyday. Not because it's a dream. Because I can't help myself. It's a personal compulsion. If someday I can live off it that would be really great sure, but it's not why I do it. Whether or not I am commercially successful with it doesn't make what I do any less important to me personally.

There is nothing lucky about it
