No matter what you do, you are going to suck at it in the beginning. It may not take long to get better for some things, but producing takes YEARS. Keep all your finished track, and just listen to them and compare them to your current tracks, see the difference. Some people aren't patient enough to know that this is going to take a lot of fucking time.
Definitely agree. If you think about any other profession, it takes years, decades or even a lifetime to make it to the top. But I would start with an even more basic understanding of why you're producing in the first place. For most people it starts as a creative outlet, so if you establish a healthy relationship with your creativity and what you expect of it, then it won't matter what the outside world thinks. Just do music because it's what you love to do, take notice and celebrate self improvement, and keep working hard.
