Get a job that you like, if you can't right this second then as soon as possible, and choose a job that you can also turn into a career which you can growwhile you are creating your art. You're working at that job not from the viewpoint of "it's work I do to fall back on in case I don't make it as a creative," but because of a decision to live well WHILE you're also creating your artistic career. See the difference in viewpoint? One perspective is pessimistic and the other perspective is optimistic.
The latter feels better to me. It's my choice. A full-time writing goal, for example, will likely take more time than you thought it would, but in the meantime, don't postpone your joy and don't make yourself miserable in life. There will be challenges in life but be good to yourself, "keep yourself whole and healthy," as Iyanla Vanzant says, and with healthy relationships, too.
We know the phenomenal talents that icon Whitney Houston had, but did you know about a time when she insisted that another musician receive her due respect. This is a beautiful story to hear!
