I think you summed it up when you said you don't write for a living, because that is the difference. If you have a day job it can be hard sometimes to get back into the swing of your writing, when all that other stuff is swimming around your head.
For me personally I go with the flow, I have my own business with all the crap that entails, so I can't devote all of my time to writing. I don't count words, because sometimes that can be so depressing. Sometimes I look down and I've only written a paragraph, other times I look up and the sun is rising and I've been writing all night, sometimes it just grabs you like that.
I guess you'd need the opinion of a full time writer, but for us part timers I think it depends on why you write.
