Oh, yeah. I mean, it's nice to meet an artist who isn't hung up on their faults, but we usually are very aware of what we've missed.

That said, maybe they are aware of their faults. I could see posting something like this, where I talk about what I'm good at to make a point, rather than waste part of the limited space in the secret talking myself down.

In fact, I have lately been trying not to talk my art down because I did it so much.

As an artist who talks their own work into the dirt, I can empathize. It's incredibly hard to find that balance wherein you can take pride in producing something and yet still acknowledge its flaws, or that you have skills you still need to master.

I don't get that tone from OP's secret, however. I get "I'm doing all these things right, why aren't I getting the credit/recognition I think I deserve/that other people are getting for it?" which is another mindset altogether.
