I love this topic! I quit a 20-year career in the veterinary field to write full-time. However, I was lucky to have built enough pet-sitting clients to pay the bills before leaving. I earn enough just by staying at other people's houses and doing a few pet visits during the day. Now I can easily fit in 8+ hours a day to write. Two books written, seven more to go in this series, and several one-off novels started already!

@@writethroughtheheart 9 books! What an endeavour! You clearly have hold great importance in clarity and authenticity in your story, which is sick. I have a question, similar to the topic of this video: Did you find it harder to create new ideas/found your creative ideas declined in quality once you quit your supportive career? I found in my art, that when I had more of a reliance on it doing well for me earning money, that because the stakes became higher on it being good, that the quality of my art decreased. Keen to hear your experience :)

I always thought getting a real job would be “selling my soul to corporate america” and all that BS, but then I grew up, moved out my parent’s house and needed to pay rent and become independent. I found that after having a full time job for over a year now and becoming financially independent that it has allowed me to structure my life in a way that is incredibly conducive to my music and art. Having such limited time makes my creative free time so precious and important. I stopped wasting time and started using all my free time to work on myself, learn, read, create, and share what I make! It takes all the pressure off my art making money and that allows me to be as creative as I want, and to truly not care what anyone thinks about it. Being financially independent allows me to make my own decisions and have autonomy over my life outside work, and as an artist I now get to prioritize art over everything else in my personal life. Growing up, getting a job, doing therapy, asking myself what really brings me joy and fulfillment is what allows me to work on art and music a little bit everyday. My job pays my rent, my art feeds my soul. ❤

For me, It’s never been about being “stuck in a 9-5”. It’s that I’ve found the one thing for which I would gladly stay in a 9-5 just to be able to do on the side. Time for making music is scarce, but that makes it more precious.

I guess it’s the difference between having it be a hobby vs a career. Both are valid but require vastly different mindsets and time investments. The 9-5 life zapped the creativity from my music and I didn’t release anything for nearly 4 years. I really, really tried. 1 year post quitting the 9-5 and going all in and I’ve launched a new project and played my first big festivals where I was able to share all my new music with a crowd. The universe seems to know when you go all in. Just to share a different perspective. YMMV.

I definitely vibe with what Elliott Smith said about the effects of a lack of structure in your life. I had a couple years where I had tons of free time, no job, no obligations, nothing but time to pursue music. But then the pressure to make something of all that time turned making music into a job in and of itself and I could barely enjoy it anymore. Having structure, even if it’s not from a job, is vital for me. If I have something I’m beholden to, the time I have outside of that thing becomes so much more precious and I’m more driven not to waste it

Absolutely. 💯 gotta use a 9-5 as a stepping stone and allocate your time and money into the things your passionate about and love. It’s not easy but if you can do that you’ll appreciate it and enjoy yourself that much more whenever you do have the time to do the things you love.

I had the same experience. When I was still at the day job, I couldn’t wait to get out. I was able to write 2-4K words before work every day, so surely I’d be able to do way more when I went full-time. It was the exact opposite. I slowed down, because there was no longer pressed for time. It took me a long while to find a new structure that worked for me, and even a year and a half into full-time writing, I can lose a whole day’s productivity if I mess up one step.

Einstein had a day job! “when Albert Einstein developed his Theory of Relativity, he was employed at a patent office in Bern, Switzerland, where he analyzed patent applications, allowing him to work on his theories during his free time.“ “Some believe that the analytical nature of his patent office work may have contributed to his development of the theory of relativity, as he was constantly thinking about mechanisms and how things worked.” My day job has taught me a lot of valuable lessons about time management, workflow, organization, dead lines, and process that I have translated into my music/art practice. As much as I hate to admit it, having a ‘real’ job has actually allowed me to grow as an artist and a person in ways that I never thought I would.

15:20 A favourite poem of mine by Charles Bukowski touches on this topic. It speaks of the drive to create, and how you should never allow circumstances or excuses to get in the way. Air and Light and Time and Space ”- you know, I’ve either had a family, a job, something has always been in the way but now I’ve sold my house, I’ve found this place, a large studio, you should see the space and the light. for the first time in my life I’m going to have a place and the time to create.” no baby, if you’re going to create you’re going to create whether you work 16 hours a day in a coal mine or you’re going to create in a small room with 3 children while you’re on welfare, you’re going to create with part of your mind and your body blown away, you’re going to create blind crippled demented, you’re going to create with a cat crawling up your back while the whole city trembles in earthquake, bombardment, flood and fire. baby, air and light and time and space have nothing to do with it and don’t create anything except maybe a longer life to find new excuses for.

Learning new things until horticulture was my primary job from an assistant to a supervisor. It never brought me full joy but it had its perks and sense of accomplishment turning blank landscapes into something beautiful for the public to appreciate. Now years later I’m driving delivering packages and food with no health benefits while working on opening up my first business which is my passion. It’s so hard the stresses of life, ware and tare on you vehicle and feeling like no one sees your vision. I’m pressing on but in LA it’s so hard and everything is expensive.

As an artist, I care deeply about telling my story. I am a parent, educator, partner, and community leader. My art still feels like the most important thing in my life but the work i do for others gives me a deep sense of fulfillment and in turn enhances my creative expression. I have made music for 20 years now and after one year of marriage, a big boy job, and children, I have tripled my creative output and actually stand behind what i make. Like my day to day life is stocked full of inspiration. My music is real now. I think people forget that their day to day life is what drives creativity and when those relatable struggles aren't there, the art is more shallow.

But I really should be trying to care a little more about an audience. I think it would be better for me imo. Maybe more healthy. 🤷‍♂️ but as Bukowski said I’m going to create regardless. ❤ God bless yall. 🫡💯👊

Artist with over 200k monthly listeners on Spotify here. This is nothing but true for me. Looking back, the days where I was just able to give a fuck about everything were truly amazing. As soon as your whole financial situation and so to say your life is depending on the success of your art, you are really starting to think different about everything. Making music in the mindset of „every new release has to be successful because if it’s not, I might loose my career“ is truly hard af to manage. Constantly being in a state of stress and fear of loosing everything from one day to another is probably also one of the hardest things about being so successful and having such a big audience. You feel like that there is no room for errors and experimentation because that would result in damaging your career and life. Your whole life is always in a safe environment. Finish school, you’ll find a job, get payed, be able to pay the bills. That’s the easy guaranteed route. So being successful as an artist really is the complete opposite. You are the only one in charge for everything. There is no help, no safe route to take. Everything is a risk. That’s why it’s so hard to be a successful artist and live of your art.

I wish I had a solid answer on how to manage it. Right now, I’m working a full-time job I hate, pursuing my undergrad, and learning how to create music. At 28, it’s easy to feel stuck in the ‘lack of time’ mindset. Starting relatively late and seeing everything I need to learn and overcome to be great feels overwhelming sometimes. But the key for me has been showing up every day and giving myself the chance to do something I enjoy. A year ago, I started doing rap bar exercises, and I wouldn’t have made it this far if I hadn’t learned to be a friend to myself.

This is something I wonder about almost everyday. I am grateful for a job that gives me structure during the day so I can be free to create in the spaces between. Lately though, because things have been busy, I get frustrated at work because I don't have time for "elective thinking." I guess it would be wise to be more present at my day job. However ideally to me, I would be able to daydream/think freely for some amount of satisfying time during the job. Thank you for putting together such motivating clips and ideas that I have heard, have resonated within and are now further emphasized. Lovely video, you are creating a space for us creatives to come together and feel understood.

This video is perfect, loved every minute! As for the topic, it hit it right on the nose. I lived through it, as a creative, I lived the "dream" of being unemployed, and not having to worry too much for about 2 years. Ironically enough, those two years were my most unproductive creative span since I was last working. I didn't stop completely, but whatever I did never ended up getting finished, there was so much pressure on needing to do something amazing with all this time I have. To create something astonishing, that in the end nothing wholly worthwhile was produced. Although, it's kind of bittersweet to be going back to work tomorrow, some part of me is looking forward to it, and the ideas that may spawn whilst being away from the desk and the constant need to create, and find myself rushing home to put that idea on paper. We'll see...

Everyone is different. Some of us do our best work quick and dirty, churning a piece out in a couple of hours. Others have to spend countless hours in every nook and cranny of it. For some of us, turning our creative hobby into a profession would suck the fun out of it, this happened to me with music. But for others, we still love doing the thing even though money and stress and assholes are involved. Writing is that for me. Figure out what works best for you. Some of us need the structure of a regular job, some of us create our own structure just as well.

I think regarding the Travis comment about not having a Plan B: this is great if it works out. But I consider myself the “failed” drummer. I did a lot of great things-toured, created, met amazing people-but in the eyes of what I expected of myself, I had failed. I followed the “no Plan B” mindset from age 17 to 32 (I heard Will Smith say it once-cheers, Will). Resentment appeared, and I had to crawl out of a sticky place. You can absolutely have a Plan B, and I’d recommend it. I think taking your mind into your day job or other areas can actually add to your creativity. There’s no single way to be a creative. I avoided a Plan B because I was told that otherwise, I’d have failed before I even began. The idea of the suffering artist will always be a thing, but don’t suffer too much. Enjoy yourself.

I think that what is really bad is structurally our society is so weighted towards the idea of a job. Why can’t we all get a balanced life of practical and creative pursuits. The greed of people who want to monopolise and own things for power prevents others from moving from survival to thriving. I think Elliott smith was correct we all need a bit of structure and discipline but we also need space to play and create.

When you want to make art for a living and not work soul sucking jobs that destroy all of your creative energy, it can be tough. I understand the message of "Work a full-time job so when you do have time, you use your time more wisely" but when you work a job that takes away all of your energy, that little time you get is spent simply resting/recovering/preparing for the next week ahead. I'd rather commodify myself than be a wage slave making someone else's company successful while I'm paid pennies in comparison. You'll never break free from the 9-5 chains because all of your time is being sold in exchange for just enough money to keep you a slave.

I know there's many conversations to be had on this topic, but as a politically inclined sicko myself, I feel disappointed that there wasn't more discussion on the material conditions that create this struggle for creativity. You know who never has to worry whether turning their passion into a career is a good idea? You know who has the free time to pursue their interests without worrying about necessities? You know who feels unpressured to make their creative works become as lucrative as possible, rather than the most true to themselves? You know who. You know who.

I found a solid office job that pays well but the workload wears me out man. My goal is to find a chill (preferably hybrid/remote) job so I can pursue music more intensely on side.

Just finished the video. Having too much free time and nothing to do with that free time is a struggle of mine. I often tell myself my creative work is something I need to do, and that puts an overwhelming amount of pressure onto that creativity. I wanna learn how to see it as a want rather than a need. Because I have a full-time job, working harsh hours that leave me exhausted and drained every day. Doing something I want to do vs. need to do is the reason why I fell into certain unproductive habits, but I can make this work around the way I’ve developed, instead of trying to change every aspect to fit what I feel I need to do.

The background jazz track is a tad bit too loud and distracting at points, something to note for next time!

The amount of improv and the nature of jazz doesn't fit BGM unless it's very structured. You end up in a trance of anticipation of odd notes.

I play music every single day, I never work on it. I hardly ever release anything, other people seeing it isn't a big deal to me. The praise or insults I get in comments don't mean much to me either way.

Joe Rogan qoute is generic BS. his good friends that were successful full time comedians grew up with families that had money. Tom Segura, Bert, Whitney Cummings, Brendan Schaub, Bryan Callen. If you did not worry about money yes you can focus on comedy. They are all well known mediocre comedians that are successful through their connections with people like Joe Rogan.
