Why quitting your job for startup life is not total freedom

Quitting your job and going all in on yourself sounds bold, but it’s not for everyone. I remember when I left mine - my partner and I already had several projects running, working part-time in the evenings. We only resigned once our income was close to what we made at our jobs. From there, it was all about pushing forward and investing everything into the business.

But the idea of total freedom? That’s a bit of a myth. You still depend on customers, employees, and how well you manage everything. You’re in control, but that comes with its own set of responsibilities.
