What is the tipping point to go full-time fastlane?

[KingWing26]

Good morning/afternoon/night,

I am currently traveling in the slow-lane (as most recent college grads do) but I am starting to check my rearview mirrors to make the switch. I was wondering what advice people had on making the full transition...at what point do you walk away from your Slowlane job to fully commit to the Fastlane? If you have an idea worth pursuing, is it wise to just drop everything and put 100% focus on it or should you stay with the Slowlane job while working on the idea outside of the day job?

Thanks,
KW
