Time for another bold move? Should I boldly follow my intuition?

[Claude Roy]

Hey Guys,

I would like to have your opinion on a situation that I'm facing. I am a software developer from Quebec City and I moved to Florida 3 months ago. I now have a job here where I make the most money that I've ever made, yet I feel totally unfulfilled when I'm being totally real with myself. I've known my life purpose which is veganism. The main reason to why I'm here is to start a business to give money to non-profits that do work in that area and help reduce animal suffering.

I am alone here and to me, it seemed like it is the "perfect" opportunity to start my business since work is easy and I earn some money that I could invest in my business. The truth is that when I come home, I really have to discipline myself to work on my business and I have a hard time doing it, since it seems like the work that I'm doing is so disconnected to animal work even though it is why I am doing at the end of the day.

I have a seen a job opportunity in California for a web developer at a non-profit organization that I truly love called Mercy For Animals. It has been on my mind for a while to just quit everything here and go and work there. The "problem" is that my salary will drop almost my half and the place where the job is is a lot more expensive than here so I will barely make any money. I feel like I will be more motivated to work on my business since I will be working on a day to day job that will be more motivating. Even if I earn less money, if I'm able to work quickly to start my business, it might be a smart change, but I fear that I will miss an opportunity to invest more money in my business and get it started quicker and ultimately helping animals more.

Any opinion/insights from you guys would be welcome, I am totally open minded to anything that I might not have thought of.

Thanks a lot and have an amazing day,

Claude
