Men want only one thing.

OK, make that two things. But we dreamers dream big, don't we? And until we learn the craft, break down our biggest goals, and do things, we do overdream about it.

There are a lot of successful game creators to look up to.

When you follow the Video Game Story Time YouTube channel you can name a dozen, at least. And some of them inspire awe very easily.

I was high on Hideo Kojima for a long time, and I still like him, but I would learn more from Kojima who made that 1986 Death Stranding prototype (the one with a penguin instead of Norman Reedus), than I from the guy who got funded by Sony.

But I digress...

The problem is - we are being conditioned by pop culture. Biographies, history pics, and fantasy/sci-fi pics all seem to be about greatness. They’re either heroes, superheroes, or big achievers.

So you want to take a break and read some tabloid headlines... Bad idea! Only politicians, celebrities, and people famous for being famous.

So you return to interviews with your favorite game devs, or just their Twitter feed (isn't it funny that X.COM leads you to Twitter? It’s like they're saying they will protect us from aliens). You like what they're doing. You and hundreds of their followers. They made it.

But some of them made it with... NOT THEIR FIRST GAME. Many indie game creators publish very niche titles, then some more, then some more. And then, MAYBE, they publish their hit.

Imagine yourself as this game creator.

Imagine yourself making your fourth game.

No success so far, not one bit.

Can you handle it?

Can you stay motivated and focused on your goal?

Will you not doubt yourself?

Will you remain true to yourself?

Will you make the next game, even if this one flops also?

And then the next one?

What if you never make it?

What if you will never join the pantheon of successful game devs?

Will the fact that you’re making video games be a win for you, even if never discovered?

Ryan Holiday highlights that the work must be the win.

Is it in your case?
