I’d always wondered what would happen if I worked less at my punch-the-timeclock job. Would my art flourish? Would I spend my free hours editing film and posting new finds on Etsy? Would I find that I didn’t need that job anymore and be truly happy and successful doing what I’ve always wanted to do?
Six months after making the transition to part-time and I have the answer: Nope. I mean, sort of, but mostly nope.
