The headline says it all, what does everybody think of this topic.
There are two groups:
Play it Safe:
Work your day job and your fast lane on the side, eventually fast lane income exceeds day job and you ease out of it slowly.
Burning Boats:
Quit, cut ties right now. Go full bore on your business and either sink or swim like you've never swam before.
I am sure many of you have faced this choice, or face it on daily basis.
Personally, I have low expenses, not much money in the first place, and an extremely erratic job with no set schedule that absolutely saps the life out of me. I want to burn my boats, I feel like I could push myself beyond what I ever have; but nobody in my life would encourage me on a choice like that so I find it difficult to decide to pull the trigger and wander off into the unknown.
I come to ask what the forums general viewpoint of this topic is?
Play it safe,
Or burn your boats.
