Be creative just to enjoy yourself. Forget about the end result. Start with what's under your direct control. If you love it, you'll get better as you continue. If it doesn't lead anywhere, at least you're having fun and loving the time spent being creative. Then one day, you just might find the perfect opportunity.
I play guitar, sing, and song-write. Songs come to my head, but I can't play the music on my guitar to match. I've only been playing for a year. My mind used to go to places where I compared myself to famous musicians. But, what's the point? How does that serve me, other than make me feel like there's an insurmountable obstacle to climb? I'm going to just keep learning and having fun. You never know when something might come out of it, and it's important to also accept and be ok with just having fun being creative - even if it only is ever for you, and you alone.
Thinking the other stuff just impedes any real progress toward doing what you want being made.
