You don't need to be productive in order to create. I spend at least a joyful hour a day improvising on the piano. I produce nothing in the sense of being "productive". I don't record nor play for others, but nonetheless, I create.

Right, my comparison was rather production vs consumption. Creation is different from production and it can exist without consumption.
