Consequence of Becoming Jaded

[SalixIncendium]

You have an inherent talent. You are one of the best at what you do.

You lived your life excelling at your inherent talent, but before your body and mind have expired, you’ve become jaded and no longer wish to share your talent with others. What’s the consequence in your belief?

If you don't use your talent, you will lose it.

[SalixIncendium]

If you don't use your talent, you will lose it.

True, but is if any consequence if one no longer wishes to use it?

Whatever you did share previously, before you became jaded, will increase in value because of it's scarcity.

Who are you and why are you spying on me??

I do less of my artwork now, which people are kind enough to say they like and people in quite a number of countries have acquired, as other things have taken priority, that is no big deal for me.

Brahmane SalixIncendium,

That's possible a good sign and calls for finish the task by one self first:

[Q&A] What happens when your tank is empty, and you’ve got nothing left to give?

What's the consequence: It taking on the own task (does not mean to get lazy and enjoys sensuality), one is not only praised be Devas and Gods but also by the wise.

Mudita in such cases that it is certain insight that it's not really possible to help others.

"Monks, these four types of individuals are to be found existing in the world. Which four? The one who practices for his own benefit but not for that of others. The one who practices for the benefit of others but not for his own. The one who practices neither for his own benefit nor for that of others. The one who practices for his own benefit and for that of others... AN 4.99: Sikkha Sutta — Trainings

I don't understand the question. What is the consequence of having a jaded belief about one's own talents? You mean you've lived with self-doubt to the point it turns into cynicism about your own talents, dismissing them as valid?

No. More that I've shared my talents in improving the lives of others with similar goals and have exhausted my interest being the 'go to' person for such knowledge. I'm bored with doing what I do, no longer have that fire within to be the best and would happily pass the torch to another. I'm just tired and no longer find what I do rewarding.
