Honestly you have to be in either a privileged or rock-bottom depressed state in order to make that kind of decision. It took me years to figure out where to take the skills and even what I wanted to do with myself.

I work part time and I make music now. I don’t have solid career advice I’m just some douche who threw a dart at a college major 10 years ago and have the type of personality to grit my teeth through work I don’t like.

So I guess my short answer is take those skills and apply them to goals that serve you beyond a paycheck, if you can.
