Pardon the cheesy title (I love a good alteration). I want to help you make a living doing what you love. Maybe you're already following your dream, but want to evaluate opportunities for improvement, growth, more stability. Or perhaps you haven't taken the leap yet, and you're wondering how you even get started. How do you translate what energizes you into something people will pay for? Do you have options other than what we traditionally think of for artists? Yes, there is a whole spectrum from hobbyist to creative professional, and where you find your spot will vary by medium and market. While I don't have a guide map for each of you, I want to help you start your journey and keep moving forward, no matter where the path may take you. Successfully turning your passions in to money making opportunities takes research, planning, experimentation, all efforts focused on honing in what you have to offer. So let's get started!

Benefits of Doing What You Love
"Do what you love, and you’ll never work another day in your life."
As entrepreneurs we tend to surround ourselves with sentiments like this, and as creatives, we're uniquely more likely to get to do wonderfully fun things that are easy to love. We're doing out best to follow our dreams, make the world a better place and focus on what we feel we can best contribute. While it takes a lot more than this to be successful, the "Do what you love" mindset is a wonderful motivator. Passion gives us drive and helps us get up each day to spend time on what makes us happy. But why does this happiness matter? Aren't jobs a means to an end? Work should first and foremost put food on the table and pays bills. Then what you have leftover you can spend on fun, right? For those of us lucky enough to find, or make, jobs that marry what we love and what will make a living, we don't have to settle. In fact, we get to reap far more signifiant rewards!
