IM sooo twisted on what path to take...

I really love making music, but at the same time I had always dreamed of being a concept artiest/game designer. bah...each one needs full devotion. I was thinking about majoring in fine art and minoring in music theory...but When it comes to being a concept artiest, you have to draw 24/7. I keep telling my self that I'm cheating my creativity by going into the music industry. (i would hate being stuck fine tuning someone else's work...which I'm afraid will end up happening ) And i really want to stay in the game industry.
What are some good way to make decisions as grand as these ones? I want to share my creativity with the world...but how...

I would say flip a coin, but in this situation, i think it requires more thought do what ever you think you would get more enjoyment out of.

Stop thinking about it and go with your gut. Your gonna lose either way. Creativity takes its own path so just go along for the ride.
-------------------- "And we, inhabitants of the great coral of the Cosmos, believe the atom (which still we cannot see) to be full matter, whereas, it too, like everything else, is but an embroidery of voids in the Void, and we give the name of being, dense and even eternal, to that dance of inconsistencies, that infinite extension that is identified with absolute Nothingness and that spins from its own non-being the illusion of everything."

Try doing neither for a month and see which you miss doing most.
or
Vividly imagine the world in 2015 and try to figure out how musicians and game designers will make a living in that world. Will you end up painting the rocks in level 17 of Tomb Raider 26, or slaving away in an Electronic Arts sweatshop? Will games design be outsourced to China in the next ten years? Will there still be a music industry?
Then, try to realistically imagine how your ideal life would look in ten years and then figure out which path will give you the best chance to reach that goal, or at least something similar.
or
Do what an earlier poster suggested and ask your favorite entheogen.

Try to become a background music composer? For games and movies and that kind of stuff. It would have the best of two worlds right?
