I'm sure we've all had this feeling. You listen to your stuff and think it's crap. I used to make music like crazy and not even thinking about the consequences. Now I just cringe while listening to my released stuff.

The weird thing is when I'm making a track I think it's going pretty good. It's only until I export it when I start to notice things I don't like about it. The doubt starts to creep in. I know I've heard worse stuff than mine before but I've also heard much better stuff too.

My question is how do you keep yourself positive about what you make and your progression as a producer?
