What is the alternative?

  Acknowledge the difficulty and sacrifice needed to follow the path of self-oriented creativity, and that most people do not have the resources to pursue it. However, that advice doesn't please the audience, so few entertainers will give it.

    That was a totally different statement, unrelated to the question as far as I can tell. I don't see how "build something you want" is different from basically how 99% of businesses start.

  I mean, a successful business would produce items that other people want, rather than what the founder/employees want. Sure, if a founder would appreciate and use the item that they make, that's really a good indicator, but it's not your personal plaything, it's a profit-making business, so the primary objective should be making useful things that people will purchase, regardless of the tastes of the founders/employees, yes? That being said, I've enjoyed Simone's wit and creativity for several years. I tuned in after one of my friends mentioned her, and she's been tenacious throughout her personal health journey and the vagaries of making ridiculous stuff on-camera. I feel like it's great that she's branching out to making stuff for other people to have.

    Well sure, but you START at an idea about something you yourself want in the world.
