I have a strong desire to do art. I used to think that was my life purpose, but now, I am unsure. To do the kind of art that I want, I need to work at least 15 hours everyday. I can discipline myself to do this, but the problem is: is not this going to ruin my life? If I spend minimum 15 hours a day working, there will be no room for self-improvement, for relationships, for journeys, for health activities, for family etc. I love art, but in the same time I love going to the gym, reading, socializing, travelling, studying etc... Is it worth giving up on all these things, to fulfill a dream and live an altruistic life? What should I do? Chase that insane goal or find another one?

I watched dozens of interviews of people that are doing the same thing, they all said something similar: around 17 hours per day, given that they have couple assistants to help them. I have tried to do the work by myself and see what if this is true. I completed around 30% of the daily tasks required in 12 hours. It took me so long because I am not at the same level as them, but still...
