When the Creative Police Come Knocking and Why Money Makes a Terrible Goal
What if someone discovered you were a fraud? That gnawing feeling in your gut-the one that whispers you're not really qualified, not really talented, not really deserving of success-is more universal than you think. It's the fear that one day, the universe will expose you as an imposter, strip away everything you've built, and sentence you to a life of mediocrity. Yet here's the paradox: despite this terror, you keep showing up. You keep creating. You keep sharing your work with the world. This tension between fear and action defines the creative life, and it's precisely where authenticity begins. The question isn't whether you'll feel like a fraud-it's whether you'll create anyway. Early in his career, chasing a million-dollar annual income seemed like the ultimate target. That goal dictated every decision-saying yes to nearly everything, working 80-hour weeks, designing websites for professional athletes despite having zero interest in sports. The money came, but so did something unexpected: emptiness. Making lots of money didn't create fulfillment; it created exhaustion and disconnection from meaningful work. Here's the uncomfortable truth: money is a terrible primary goal because it has nothing to do with your values. It's a measuring stick that tells you nothing about whether you're living well or creating work that matters. This doesn't mean money is evil-it's an enabler and amplifier. If you're focused on helping others, money lets you do more good. It also serves as feedback, measuring how much people value what you offer. But until you define what "enough" means for you personally, you'll always be chasing an arbitrary number that never satisfies. Consider the contract accountant who accepts projects until he's covered his necessities and retirement savings, then stops working and travels for months. He's defined his "enough." This clarity creates freedom-the freedom to say no, to take time off, to explore interests beyond income generation. Once you abandon the endless pursuit of more, you can let your values guide your work instead. What matters to you? Who do you want to serve? What kind of impact do you want to make? Living frugally with minimal business expenses helps maintain this freedom. When your overhead is low, you need less income to sustain your lifestyle, which means you can be more selective about projects and clients. You can take time to write, travel, or simply think. The intersection between enjoying what you do and getting paid for it becomes the sweetest place of all-not because you've maximized income, but because you've optimized for meaning.
