Why Don't You Get a Real Job?
How many of us have had that question hammered into our
consciousness? I would bet that most musicians, artists, actors,
writers, missionaries, athletes, entrepreneurs, stay-at-home
parents, and inventors have all had to deal with this question.
After we are successful and the big money and fame is rolling
in, then everyone says how brave and tenacious we were. After we
change the world with our art, our incredibly successful
children, our spiritual teachings, our new ideas and business
concepts, then people say we are "lucky" to be one of the chosen
few as if we didn't really work all that hard to get to that
successful place. Until that day when we are fabulously wealthy
and our industry grants us superstar status, we are deemed
dreamers, unrealistic, illogical, and without real direction as
we diligently toil away at our work until it's worthy of
acceptance as a "real job." They see us as an overnight success
or as complete failures. Until we are winners, our work is
deemed as a hobby, a luxury, or as simply frivolous.
Look into the history of our famous artists, Olympic athletes,
inspirational novelists, and others of this nature. Unless they
are born into extreme wealth, they typically have a benefactor
who puts a roof over their head, feeds them, and subsidizes
their efforts until they can get to a place where their work is
able to pay for itself. Many famous painters, sculptors,
classical music composers, and such were never acknowledged
during their own lifetimes for the work that they did. They were
independently wealthy or someone paid their way. Sometimes
benefactors do it because they have a simple love of the arts, a
love of athletic games, a love of good books, and such. Other
times they do it from an investment perspective. Should the
person develop their craft to a point that it is profitable,
then they are promised a percentage of the proceeds. In either
case, a benefactor typically will support the artists,
missionaries, and athletes that show the most promise.
The benefactor and the artists have one thing in common, they
both see the world as a better place for the gifts and talents
that are shared. A woman who works two jobs and raises the kids
so that her husband can focus all of his attention on his
entrepreneurial efforts is doing so because she truly believes
in him, in his business, and that some day it will all pay off
financially. Even if he fails, she believes in the dream and
will most likely cheer him on to try again. Parents will pay a
fortune to get the coaching and training their child needs, if
they show the potential and passion of a future gold medallist.
Why? Because they believe in the dream.
Do not forget the gifts of those who would give their gifts to
the world even if it means that they will live in poverty for
doing so. The couple that chooses to live off one income so that
their children can have one stay-at-home parent is making that
decision with their eyes wide open. The folks who travel into
Africa to give aid to the starving and the dying do not see
their lack of monetary gain as important enough to quit. The
entrepreneur lives on a shoestring budget so that he can create
a business knowing that the world is a better place for the
goods and services that his company will provide. There is a
spiritual lesson and a truly heartfelt joy that comes from
knowing that giving our gift is so much more important than
driving a large SUV while wearing the latest fashions. Yes, we
would have liked it if a wealthy benefactor had shown up in our
lives, but their absence will not stop us from moving forward
with our dreams.
But what does it matter if we have artists, actors, athletes,
and such in the
world? Isn't it all technically just a pleasant
luxury of life? Do we really need sporting events, rock
concerts, art on our walls, Broadway plays, and books that are
not factual scientific textbooks? Yes! Yes, we do NEED them.
These things keep us sane. Imagine for a moment what the world
would be like without any music. Imagine the world without any
movies, plays, and fairy tales. Imagine the world without
mystery novels, romance novels, self-help books,
autobiographies, or children's storybooks. Imagine the world
void of art, beauty, fashion, rose gardens, water fountains,
birdbaths, and wind chimes. Imagine the world without
entrepreneurs, where everyone works for large well-established
organizations and you can never break free of that rule. Imagine
a world without priests, ministers, rabbis, monks, nuns, and
other spiritual healers because they cannot PROVE that their
work is actually a necessity. Imagine a world without comedians,
clowns, and toy makers. In a world where everyone went out and
got a 'real job,' these things would be no more. Imagine a world
where the only 'work' that was acceptable was work that was
practical, logical, and earned a stable income.
We would drift into such a darkness of the soul. We would sink
into a horrible depression without these beautiful gifts of the
heart. Throughout the history of mankind, we have entertained
ourselves with the arts, athletics, spiritual and philosophical
debates, and with forms of laughter. It is through these
creative arts, intellectual arts, fine arts, and physical arts
that we maintain the sanity of the human race. Laughter is the
best medicine. Happiness and a joyful heart are the purest of
spiritual gifts that the universe has to offer.
We are not born to become super logical serious analytical
worker bees. We are here to manifest the spirit of love and
inner-connectivity throughout the world. We are here to design
and play at building cultures and belief systems. We are not
here to be some greedy corporation's salesmen, paper pushers,
and clones of those in the next cubicle over. We are here to be
the expression of the human spirit in its greatest form. We do
that through the arts. Not everyone is called to be an artist, a
musician, an athlete, a minister, an actor, a stay-at-home
parent, or an entrepreneur. However, everyone does benefit from
the fact that they are here leading us to the belief that there
is something inspirational out there. There is something more to
life than just work. There is also love, beauty, mental health,
spiritual health, and laughter.
I cannot write music, make films, run a 4-minute mile, or ice
skate like a ballerina, but I am healed, inspired, motivated,
and touched by the passion of those who can. What a dark and
cold place this would be without those passionate ones who
refuse to get a 'real job?' The world really is a better place
because these passionate artists, motivational athletes, and
inspirational ministers chose to break free of the mainstream
normal lives that others would have expected of them. Somewhere
in the hearts and souls of these people, they had to find the
answer to that question.... "Why don't I get a real job? Because
the world needs my gift as much as I need to give it."
