11 Tips to surviving a day job with your creativity intact

Jori Lynn Keyser's list is for artists and budding artists who have a day job while all their passion is directed in another direction entirely. She explain the essence of her list in tip #7 (Set a theme for the day):

The point is to see the day (and the day job) as a work of art rather than a series of drudgeries keeping you from your true vocation. Your art is everywhere in your life — it is your life and your life is your art. Practice holding this truth in your awareness and you will never be bored.

I hope she writes a similar list for managers who should be nurturing and engaging all their employees creative abilities.
