This is an obvious thing to say, but when a musician becomes successful and famous they have all the respect in the world, all the fans, all the money they need to buy whatever they want and generally earn God-like status.
However, there are many musicians who do not reach this level. They do not earn success, fame, fortune or God-like status, and furthermore they are made to feel failures or undervalued because they do not make a living from their art. It's not seen as a credible career choice. Many musicians work very hard, develop their craft and build a fanbase, and that takes time. They may not earn much money during this time, and self-esteem and security could be seriously effected.
This is the musician's paradox - you can be a successful artist, but you may have difficulty in fulfilling this ambition by social constraints and your own music issues.
The solution is simple - bring a bit of realism into your music ambitions and develop an ideal timeframe in which to improve yourself. After that, the sky really is the limit.
