I am not sure I will be able to paint one each day, but I surely going to try. My dream was always to have my own art exhibition; not has to be bought (but all would be on sale). I am pushing 60 and still fearful; fearful that my art quality is not up to standards. While friends and family have told me numerous times that I should be a professional, I don't have the full confidence to believe them. Anyone else battling these 'inner demons'?

We all battle with resistance Kalek, and imposter syndrome. You can do this, and the best way to overcome those voices is to get into action by having a plan to follow your goals. You should read The War of Art by Stephen Pressfield. Super helpful on this topic of overcoming resistence. Keep going!
