Why be mature and care for responsibility?
As an artist & online gallerist professionalism is a way of life, as to me the idea behind being creative is to help others in society to develop and improve their trust in themselves, which inherently then manifests as confidence in the very nature of the expression.
Because to know your own way of being an autonomous individual - and - still function within a collective, without the need for hierarchies or especially environmental influences, would to me be knowing and understanding beyond mere intelligence and IQ, and living with the human condition.
This is a condition we are ALL subject to, and happens by not giving back what you have accrued in knowledge and resources in life, because to be greedy in life always carries a bad set of consequences for the rest of humanity, for me I learned the hard way and decided that my social status has no special value or importance in life.
Someone with no actual learning in them will readily imagine all sorts of fictitious scenarios, which do nothing but block the path to truth, because they live their life as though they're the only people who matter, they use just about every excuse to justify selfishness. But sooner or later they regret never taking the opportunity to grow up because they couldn't or wouldn't let go of past hurt.
When I am in this compassionate state of mind, I only have an attachment to learning about the world, being free to see, hear, and feel the full breadth and depth of life as an observer, because I know that what I sow becomes what I reap. Hence I choose to be good at listening, and in turn gain the respect of humanity.
So to me, all things being equal, you learn to live by, living to learn, this is how you gain confidence in life.
