True words, mate im happy to see you following your god given gift!
Its good to try out new things but like you said, it makes no sense to waste your gift by trying to be someone else, or working for years in a job that makes you unhappy.
It is worth to fight for things you love even it can get very difficult sometimes.
Stay Creative ;)
Seeing you be so creative always inspires me. I love being around people who are being highly creative and using their talents.
