Yeah it's tough....For the last 14 years I've wanted nothing more than to be a DJ/producer but last year kinda just sucked my joy and passion away. That and just not making enough money doing it just got me to the point where I realized I needed to do something else. It's tough because even though I have a degree I feel like I'm starting fresh and reinventing myself.....I really haven't had a real job in years. I worked at a start up earlier this year to get some experience but giving so much time to the company and not getting paid killed me, plus I realized I just didn't believe in their vision. I still DJ but I think this will probably be my last year doing this full time. I've honestly become much more money hungry lately where as in the past I used to wake up saying what can I create that will be amazing....

That reality is setting in, breh.

Dreams don't pay bills.

I got an interview next week for a position. But if I don't get it, I've got a plan to switch up careers.

Ppl look at the future with a lot of optimism and forget to prepare for the worst.

I wouldn't go that far, that's a defeatist mindstate ......Dreams can pay the bills but it just has to work out for you and unfortunately they don't all the time. There's a risk with anything in life but it has to be worth it.
