    Existential crisis after struggling so much for so little as an artist.

    In other words, he’s fucked, he knows it, and yet he can only keep going, all while deeply regretting his life choices.

    In the mean time I’ve seen students in their 50’s make a succesful careerswitch. It’s scary, it’s risky and you have to start at the bottom again, but it’s certainly not impossible.

      I want to add onto this

      You don’t start from the bottom. All the knowledge and skills you’ve had are still there. What that does mean, is that now you can be interdisciplinary. Which can be immensely useful

      Dunno if you’re at the absolute bottom. A lot of careers would appreciate the professional/business experience anyway, especially interchangable skills.

    It’s a cry for help. Darkly funny to some, I suppose.

    Writing down common self doubts about their career trajectory.

    It’s accurate, but I wouldn’t want any of these to hang on my walls.
