I can't seem to get much of anywhere because I don't have self-confidence because hardly anyone took the time to make me feel like I have any self-worth. So even though I write music, I'm afraid of putting it out there because I feel like I'd be inconveniencing people for them to listen to it and evaluate it, and that they're probably not going to like it anyway. This leads to me not even writing that much music in the first place, so I end up not being very prolific, and for that reason, I feel even WORSE about myself because all the successful composers are, like, constantly writing. So...what are your thoughts?
don't wory about it and find success for yourself.

bill gates is not great looking.
oh michael jackson always had self image issues. he's a genius.
john lennon had low self esteem - he's a genius too.

you need to build support for yourself if other people won't do it for you
