Honestly, this is true of most creative activities. Playing an instrument? Singing? Painting? Drawing? Almost everyone has some sort of creative activity they enjoy.

The enjoyment comes in part from the lack of pressure. The activity doesn't have to pay the rent - at most, it's beer money.

Perhaps more negatively: expecting to make a living with something that millions do for fun? Hubris. Very few really are that good, but only very few.

For the rest of us? Enjoy your hobby for what it is.
