Comments on: Is Blogging A Real Job? A Career Is What You Make It http://www.rajdash.com/is-blogging-a-real-job/ Lessons in Productivity, Creativity, Learning, Knowledge + Personal Development, Tech, Digital Nomadry Thu, 13 Aug 2009 21:31:31 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Raj Dash http://www.rajdash.com/is-blogging-a-real-job/comment-page-1/#comment-36 Raj Dash Thu, 03 May 2007 04:04:19 +0000 http://www.rajdash.com/is-blogging-a-real-job/#comment-36 Hey Phillip, thanks. Well that's true, though I wish my father had been supportive back then about an artistic career. He's fine with my writing as a career now, though. On the other hand, I wouldn't change anything about the careers I've had. I learned something from each - which is important to find true career happiness. I have your article in my queue to read, but at a glance, it looks great: very indepth. I'm glad you found happiness in writing. It's not easy, and freelancing is never stable. But I know I'm always happiest as a freelancer. Hey Phillip, thanks. Well that’s true, though I wish my father had been supportive back then about an artistic career.

Can totally relate. A stable career and the social security benefits it brings is a priority here in the Philippines, where employment is always an issue. So my choice to go writing/blogging/working from home as my day job was also seen as a risky and quite stupid move. Tell you what, I'm pretty much satisfied where I stand now :D If I had read this post sooner, I would've mentioned it in my related post, <a href="http://blog.corsarius.net/2007/04/23/the-balls-to-follow-the-bliss/" rel="nofollow">The Balls to Follow the Bliss</a>. Btw, you and your brother are lucky to have a dad who appreciates art. Many fathers dont :) I loved this post, Raj. Can totally relate.
