A common lie about the development of anything valued is that the people making it were cool the whole time, that they knew it would be perfect and loved. This leads to pushing people away from creation because they think they can’t do bad on the road to doing good.
Bad art is essential for good art, and this applies more broadly to just about anything. You don’t make progress on success, you make progress on iterative failure, repeatedly getting just a little closer every time, until you find success.
