You only need the spark, not the chimp tendon.
Of the MBTI profiles, I'd say INFP is the most artsy one.

I actually think a little bit of the Dunning-Kruger effect could help a noob/intermediate artist to keep the faith in practice. Sometimes it can be overwhelming to fully understand the extent to which you suck

Every time I've embarked on a big project, if I'd known how long it was going to take when I started, I wouldn't have begun work. But once you're halfway done, it's better to soldier on than give up.
Sunk cost fallacy can be useful for actually finishing something.
