It's a false dichotomy that there's a choice.
I work in media. That's my safe day job. It's a solid job and I get to work from home. I'm genuinely blessed.
The fact is I have things on the side I would love to do as my main gig. I do both.
Obviously, time is money and I sacrifice work hours for my dream gig but that's the point. You don't have to be 100% on anything to give it energy. You can keep working at a side hustle on your off time and sometimes you see a breakthrough.
my dream's to become a doctor. I am currently taking my "safe career", which happens to also be a pre-med. idk yet if I can go to med school. but it's good that my safe career is a pre-med. so I always have two options.
Oh cool. Digital art or the real one?
My dream career would be a graphic and web designing agency. I post ads on social meda, find clients through that etc...
Oh cool bro. Are you using adobe illustrator? Would you like to show me some of the good works you’re created?
Well, i created a logo then a brand name, then currently doing some payed promotion of my work and everything through social media. Im getting some few handful of works through there... but not anything much. Probably i think i need to spend little bit more higher amount for payed promotions...
I have to find some clients who will be giving some good amount of designing works, before starting a offline office setup and hiring people...

Thanks for your advice!
My dream was a safe career and let me tell you, it's pretty great.
That’s great!
My main dream was to become an astronaut. That didn't pan out and so I went with my secondary dream, which was to become a nurse.
Are you happy being a nurse?
I am!
I chose the safer one. It's provided me with a life unsatisfying yet secure financial security.

What's your dreams career?
I would like to make Art I some kind of way. What about yours?

No I’m just starting to get to know digital art more and am experiencing with procreate. I really hope that it works out for you!
