Finishing the project.... or not. The entire concept of success is amorphous, defined not by rules or guidelines but inane rambling from authority figures in your life. Set your own goals and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
It's one thing to have to write and another to enjoy doing it. Hopefully you can find yourself in pursuit of the latter. It can actually be emotionally uplifting and reduce stress to escape from the uncertainty of this world and control the narrative.
