Find yourself getting asked this question each day as you stroll into your part-time or full-time job? Maybe you are starting to feel like everyday you have a “case of the Mondays.”

If you can find a fulfilling job that allows you to still be involved in music at the level you desire, then great! There are definitely things that are more important in life than guitar such as family and friends, but if you find yourself in an non-rewarding situation, are you willing to make a few sacrifices that may just lead to an overall increase in your happiness?

If you re-evaluated your life goals this weekend like we suggested, what did you discover that you value most?

Are you willing to make a little bit less money if it meant that you could surround yourself with music and music related activities? The following is a list of music industry related jobs just to help get your mind thinking about what possibilities there are to stay involved in music.

These were taken off Music Jobs USA, a great music job search website that I recommend getting on. It’s only 5 bucks a month too! Feel free to add anything else that might not be included, and please let us know how you are involved in the Music Industry as well.
