Did good come out of your move though? Or are you still looking right now?

I sold my company, took a job working for someone else, and I'm now actively planning to start another company. The reason I suggested that you're in a good position is because most of the issues I had were cashflow-related - having to cover my existing expenses on substantially reduced income (I had to pick up all kinds of distracting side projects to pay the bills). If you're living at home and you have healthy savings, you can really focus on building the product.
