Confucius said,"He who enjoys what he does for a living will never work a day in their lives."
I truly have felt that way at some p oints in my career. There are however more times in it that I've had to bite the bullet and do the grind because that's why it's called "work." It's called "work" because it's not supposed to necessarily be fun or rewarding, but a finiancial agreement for your time and the employers money.
I know many artists who live the artist lifestyle, won't become artisans and make items that people will buy but will only make art for arts sake and thus are not very wealthy in money.
It's all a trade off.
I just watched the play Avenue Q which is leaving off broadway and moving to broadway, it totally deals with this subject with puppets, songs, and lessons, just like Sesame Street but with adult subject matter.
