quit my job and be an artist

...so farking terrified. Five more weeks before I get laid off from my job and I still haven’t solidified my plans. Eeep.

In truth, the hardest part about this is the first step. “Maybe one day…” is pretty much a recipe for it never happening. For me, this is GOING to happen. It will, because I refuse to spend my life hating my job, and I know that I have what it takes to do what I love for a living if I play my cards right. So, I’ve given myself a timeline: five years. In those five years I will save up enough money to quit my job for at least one or two years, continue working on my art while I can, and learn more about how to start my own business.
