Drawbacks in Quitting My Job

In a moment, I'll be preparing myself for another long session of video editing. I love editing, esp. the techy stuff, and the best part in this job is that I get to work with a dual processor 1.5 g powermac G4 with a big flat LCD screen. It used to motivate me a lot. But then I suddenly lost excitement over my day job. For a month I thought about it carefully. I've been torn with the decision of quitting and just going freelance because I want to explore and broaden my horizon on design and all its aspects.

The only drawback is the cashflow. Honestly, I'm quite scared because when you go freelance, there is no regularity of pay. Oh, well.. my only baon is my love for risk and adventure + perseverance in achieving what I want. Hindi ko rin naman malalaman kung tama ang naging desisyon ko kung hindi ko susubukan, And I won't learn if I don't experience it. Besides, I told myself that I don't want to be an employee forever. And there are a lot of things that I want to do -- so I guess it's just right to start a business at a young age. :)
