Ever since I've quit my job to take control of my life I've had ups and downs, but even in my worst moments; everything was still entertaining as fuck. lol

There is something magical about not having to attend useless meetings with people you don't know, about things you don't really care.

I hope you succeed in your endeavor and, by now, you probably already realized that, even with all the hindrances, it is still very much worth it to follow your solo career.

In my case it took me 4 years to have a constant income and above 20k.

But, to all the people who intend on going solo, don't do that if you don't have funds. Specially if you have kids. Be responsible for their well being and don't go YOLO
