the work/life balance can pan out many ways.

i work in a warehouse .. due to the labour intensity + increased hours i find im spending less time doing music . where as a few years ago i was part time so i had basically 4 days to do what i want .. getting home tired limits my motivation tbh .

so .. as long as you have the energy you will find time to create . i used to make beats alot upto 4 hours before having to get up for an early shift .. so its deffo do-able

.

depending on your style of travel and type of job . i guess to can do extra tasks to benefit your music inbetween .ie sample collecting .. digging for sounds online

Yea, I went off in my post above like no matter what's going on in your life you will make time if beat making is important you. Which is true to an extent, but sometimes it can be difficult.

I don't have a physically draining job. If I did I don't think I would play in my studio as much as I do now.

Even stress & other factors can make it hard to create sometimes. I was stressin out earlier this week, a lot on my mind..... yea beat making can be an escape, but sometimes when your mind & heart are so full of other shit, making beats is the last thing on your mind.

I run a CNC machine for cutting parts out of wood and metal. I also boost moral with my uncanny wit and plethora of one liners.

Working 2 jobs lately.

In my regular gig I’m a garbage yard cleaner for an apartment complex. I empty the trash every day, clean the yard, sometimes put notices on doors or help paint a vacated apartment. Most the time I drive a golf cart all day. The trash is always nasty, but sometimes people get rid of stereos, DVDs, etc. I’d love to find some records if they left them in a abandoned apartment. But if it was in a trash bin, they’d probably be all scratched or smelling funny.

2nd job is through a temp agency on my days off, helping out at a mall. This gig is to help me get some new studio equipment. It’s just for this December to help me out. Then I’ll see if I wanna do more work on my days off, or get back to my beats.

Peace.

Substitute teacher in LA area

Heres my mentality going in to teach at each grade level.

Elementary School Mentality = Drill Sergeant/ Parental attitude/ Lifeguard

Middle school Mentality = Prison Warden

Deal with hyperactive hormonal adolescent know it all cunty attitudes for the entire day. Run classroom like a high security jail keep them from breaking shit and fighting/arguing/harassing/bullying one another for the entire period. If anyone learns anything new while I'm there its a goddamn miracle.

High School Mentality = Mentor/Advisor

I can be my laid back self until I encounter teenage rebels or attention whores

Sometimes it is difficult to combine a job and studying. To ease my situation I usually order essays on rapidessay.com/buy-college-papers-online.html This way I save a lot of time and spend it with my friends or my parents.

I am not working yet but am planning to go to medical college. To do this, I have to study a lot, and I think I will turn to tutors for help, because I am very worried that I might not pass the exams.

Such a great reason is that you can get knowledge while sitting at home. This is nothing complicated. I have been doing this for quite some time, because I found some excellent online tutors at https://studymind.co.uk/
Thanks to this, I can study any subject without leaving home, moreover, it is no less effective than studying at school. I think you should try it!"
