Reminds me of Rich Hickey's sabbatical he went on to make Clojure. It cost him this retirement but he was able to improve much more than just his own development experience. That's probably the real reason for entrepreneurship. Why go after "spiky", unstable cash flow and burn savings? It's got to matter for other reasons too.

Yes I agree.. And there are so many benefits I've found -

- More time and freedom to work on my creative project. - Have more time for my family - Connect with people from across the world.

It's totally worth it, but can be hard for some people, that's why I think they need to focus on these 5 questions.

Basically it boils down to one question: money.

> - Do you have a monetizable skill?

> - Have you made your first dollar online?

> - What's your runway?

> - Can you deal with uncertainty?

> - Do you have a support system?

Yea, sort of, but different aspects of it.

Coz predictable, simple money is what keeps us hooked to jobs we hate. So the escape from that will also be around money.

I quit my job last year and have been working for myself since then. I've been asked by many people about what should they know/do before they quit their job.

I think these 5 questions can help anyone figure out their path
