The Day Job Survival Kit: For Writers, Artists, Crafters, and Anyone Else with a Dream

Are You an Artist Starved for Time?

Do you feel like your day job has taken over your life and you have no time for your art or craft? Do you feel like you’ll be stuck in this soul-crushing job forever? It’s frustrating to feel like your art will never pay the bills and that you spend so much time at work that you have no time for your passion. But what can you do? We live in a world where you need money to survive, but life without passion feels unfulfilling, depressing, and soulless.

Your Life is Bigger than Your Day Job

What if you coupled positive intention with your artistic vision? You regularly create beauty out of formerly formless lumps of clay, raw canvas, or blank sheets of paper, so why not apply these same visionary skills to your entire life? The power of your mind is stronger than the circumstances surrounding you. You have the ability to turn your entire life into a work of art.

Shift Your Mindset to Achieve Your Artistic Dreams

Whatever you make room for in your life will flourish, and Durga Walker will show you exactly how this is possible. In her book, The Day Job Survival Kit, Walker shares practical advice—like how to create studio space in your home, how to find time for your art when your day job feels like it’s taking over your life, and how to set goals as an artist—coupled with a spiritual edge that will enable you to overcome challenges, mold your life as you envision it, and go from struggling artist to master craftsman. Even though you’re not a full-time artist yet, you can start now and feel more satisfied with your life than ever before.
