My cousin is a musician who also acts in a soapie to "pay the bils and generate cashflow for his real passion" as he put it. His life is hectic. He says its all about discipline and maintaining a routine (which you all echo, above). And life is easier when you have your own studio/music room at home. his day is something like this:

05h00 -16h00 be on set for makeup and on call.
17h00 - 20h00 hit the gym for 3 hours a day, every friggin day. (He does Muay Thai competitively)
20h00 - 21h00 shower, eat and relax
21h00 - 00h00 practise and record.

his band performs twice a month.

I would die with a routine like that. I'm astouded that he managed to keep a functional relationship going for 4 years. He doesnt watch TV. He doesnt "do" the internet. I think that's the real secret. Whilst we're pondering about "how do you find the time?", people like him use all the available time they have to actually do stuff.
