@noelle @OchotonidKnight one thing that really helped me beat this attitude out of my head was reading other artists go through the same shit.
chuck jones's autobiography was what really hit home for me. he has a very simple philosophy that i've heard espoused by other artists in more elegant metaphors, but his resonated the most: every artist has, let's say, a thousand bad drawings in them. the sooner you do your thousand, the sooner you get to the good shit.
@noelle @OchotonidKnight (also worth reading Chuck Amuck for tales of things like the guy who ran a sandwich shop complete with making his animation desk into a makeshift grill and delivering lunches via baskets lowered out the window, because it turns out the wackiness level of people drawing Bugs Bunny cartoons is, in fact, just as high as you could imagine)
