I know the feeling all to well. It has been about a year, i decided to take an insane pay cut, i mean almost down to 0 and use all my money towards surviving during my own projects.
It has been a hell of a ride, but i am about a month from it being paid off, which will be one LONG month until it happens.
But bridging the gap between clients and 100% on your own is a massive relief.
I can tell you from experience doing both never worked. You have to choose one or the other. Going at it 50% of the time even on your own just doesnt cut it. But the short term sacrifice not having that pay cheque coming in is worth the risk going for that freedom of working for yourself.
