I want to pursue my passions.....but I have a full time job?

Asked by robotmonkeyarm (151) September 5th, 2012 from iPhone

I have a full time job that takes up my whole day and is draining all my energy. I have no time to do what I want to with my life and I’m essentially going nowhere. I’m college-age, but not going to college and I’m still living at home, so I don’t have many bills to worry about every month (although I do have some), yet I’m working my life away right now. I work in a good company with very good long term potential, and it kills me to think of leaving here, but I have way more important things to do! I want to pursue my passions full-time, not spending my time away, draining myself day in and day out. In this current situation, I’m usually only left with like 2 hours a day to myself, yet I’m usually too tired to get anything productive done then. I am almost ready to give it all up to pursue my dream with all my strength and…I guess I’ll face the consequences when they arise. I want to put it on the line… I’m just scared of the consequences. Maybe it’s just a dumb idea to begin with? Maybe I should keep workin my life away and not take the risk?? What the heck do I do in this situation?
