don't follow your passion

Don’t follow your passion.

Have a day job 9-5 that brings you stability. Be really really good at. Specialise as a producer, so you can diversify as a consumer.

Then manically pursue your other interests/art in your free time.

You separate making an income from the act of creation.

This is the healthiest and happiest way to be a creative human being

Create for an audience of one. Yourself.

Whatever you make says nothing about you as a person.

When you release something (release a blog article/ post/music/ any art)- you should literally release it, let it go.

Everything you make is like a child building castles in the sand. Enjoy the process.
