Except to apply this ideology is to free yourself from the socio-environmental restrictions that limit the way your brain can function creativity, "dry rationality" as you call it is not as dry as you might think, it's the realization of the grander perspectives we have subconciously filtered out of our lives because of our warped way of perceiving things. Well I shouldn't say completely "warped" I just lack a better term because I am fucking drowzy, but I think it's true to say human beings fall into many traps of being unable to become self-aware of the things they are doing and why they think certain ways. Do not take me as a total cynic or a fatalist because my opinions are oriented towards positive thinking. There is nothing inherently wrong with the shit we do, but what I am telling OP here is he needs to start thinking from a taller perspective, this seems to be a symptom of someone who has become the victim of his social environment and his perceived importance of "good art". My ultimate answer is struggle might make "good art" but why just focus your life struggle and not your entire experience as a human being instead? The experience of living in the universe as a human being is SO much more than just struggle and hardship, sure it's a big part of it but you aren't being honest with yourself if you think the most beautiful things born in life are born from struggle. Struggle is a state of mind.

I am probably just rambling, im sore as shit and tired and I quit my job and I tell you "struggle" hasn't helped my thoughts at all, it's probably been worse for me than anything I can think of except drugs and alchohol.
