IMO, it is advice to be taken very literally. Like, for real, make music you want to throw onto your stereo and crank up like your life depends on it. Make music that you, literally, will put on repeat and enjoy hearing, uh, repeatedly!
NO! This isn't advice on how to get popular. This isn't "write music for yourself because then others will love it to." Nope, no, nonononononono... This is "write music for yourself because you are the only one who knows your exact likes so why wouldn't you write music for yourself?"
Be self indulgent! It's art! Nobody can stop you! ๐
All of my music is on my favorites list, sometimes it comes up on random and, when it does, it's a jam :P. Nobody else is writing music specifically for me, so I gotta enjoy it, ya know?
Can you share? Sure! Should you share? Prolly! Should it matter if you share it or not? Nope! Just make it for you and you'll enjoy it, promise :)
