I am a person that has a LOT of talented artist friends, both in music and art, but many of them believe in having to make numbers on social media, believing things like "you have to beat the algorithm!" or "you have to be constantly sharing and liking my drawings!", while in my case, I got a good number of followers who interact with me and got many views on content I never imagined to get views at all, all achieved just by doing what I like, but, when I put myself as an example, is not enough to change their minds  What would you say to convince them of just doing what they like and stop thinking that your art has to become popular?
they are probably already doing what they like. so that mission is accomplished. if you are already doing what you like, then that could be 2 missions accomplished in 1 day
