Creative people tend to lean heavily toward their creative pursuits and devote all their time to them. Career-driven people have no time left for family and friends. Party people have no time for work or creativity.
Sometimes, in your youth, you’re a party animal, then a career-driven person, and then a family person. Or the other way around: first you became a career-driven person, achieved success or became disillusioned with it, and then became a creative person.
Which is better: leading a balanced life or swinging from one extreme to another?
