A painting by a famous artist could be worth millions. A painting of the same quality by someone with magnificent talent, yet unknown, might be worth considerably less since a lot of it is the prestige and rarity. What causes the difference, Leo? You have a gift you haven't been able to cash in on, but that doesn't mean you can't do so in the future. Don't underestimate your value just because someone else is being recognized and you are not. This isn't necessarily a creative talent - it could also relate to business or athletic talent, perhaps. Get out and blow your own horn for a while, and the people you meet could be instrumental to future success.
