Ira Glass, again

The other day, I posted this quote from Ira Glass on the topic of creative work. I really value what he's saying here and though it is mostly along the lines of 'if at first you don't succeed...' it still rings true and honest. I'm trying to be okay with the gap I'm currently in, and though I'm not a writer, a painter, a photographer, etc, I still consider myself a 'creative' person. I'm in this place in my life trying to bridge the divide of what I'm inspired by and enjoy doing (which spans a lot of niches) to focusing my interests on a clearer direction. So though this quote from Glass isn't directly related to my current situation, I like what he's saying. And, in thinking about it, I also came across this video:
