Can Creativity by itself be a Life Purpose?

I might believe that I stand in my way.. Guilty that I have certain chances but I fail.

It’s a habit of self referential thinking. Notice when you are thinking about yourself, and think about what you are wanting to create, and why, instead.

Im moving in both, Jimis and Dr. Houses direction, but here is the final boss: How do I know I am doing enough? How do I know I am not delusional in my endeavor? You know by finding out only? 

It’s a habit of judgement. On both accounts, notice you are making an arbitrary measurement and distinction which is not in your favor, and does not feel inspiring. You would have to isolate a specific segment to call the beginning and end, by which you could establish you ‘failed’, or ‘are doing enough or not’, or ‘are delusional or not’. Notice that you are imposing that view and do not have to. You could also say in recognizing that, that there will always be something next, you will never reach a ‘done’ point, and so you could never ultimately establish if you ‘failed’ or ‘succeeded’, or ‘did enough’ or ‘didn’t do enough’. This points back to the only point itself, which is life for the experiencing of life. That is the joy of being. Anything else is icing on a miracle.

I guess I should tattoo "do more" into my forearm. 

“Think Less ? Love More”.

@Nahm Ah thank you so much Nahm!

You are so right and I'm actually more and more in love with the process. Im just scared I fail and it will end. But it's true that there is no failure as the process is an infinite line rather than a finite one, If you choose that. 

I hope to create more wisdom to serve out of love for the process, than out of fear (which is also motivation, but maybe not a good one).

Amen!

I'll post a picture of my tattoo choice ?

There could come a moment when you indeed realize you failed and it ended. 

But you would soon enough laugh at the thought, and think something else, which is the inherent evidence you didn’t fail, and it didn’t end. 

This would be like driving ten miles and calling it a failure and an end...while missing you’re still driving the car.

I would argue that there is no infinite line, only infinite humor.
