Hi there Thinh, yes, a day job sometimes necessary, especially when you have kids/ obligations and $0 in the bank.
I have counted my time and money. I am 26 year old and I know I can last 2 years w/o any income at all at my current state (still living with my parents. I helped pay monthly bill and they never mind me not having a day job.)
For me, it's not about getting a job for urgent need. It's just that this whole Fastlane journey is hard, so hard that it sometimes stress me very much that I wish I didn't quit my cushy day job and pursue it. Especially when I hear my friends who are at the same level in corporate employment previously speaks about their salary increase.
The loneliness.
The struggle.
Sometimes, it takes too much toll mentally.
I will publish a Progress thread soon, so perhaps I'll see you there.
Thanks for commenting on my post
It's more than the money. It's about the mindset.
From my own experience or that of entrepreneur friends, I noticed that rarely when you start any business, you need to work on it full time. You end up doing things to "fill up" your days with "activity" (but you're not aware of it, of course).
Somehow the fact of having limited time to work on a new business forces you to prioritize and focus and what really matters.
On top of that, not having an income stream still places you in a scarcity mindset. Even if you have two years in front of you, the clock still ticks.
Again, it might just be my case, and you may totally rock it that way, because your thinking is different from mine. I truly hope it is the case. I just had to let you know.
