To anyone reading this: please take this with a grain of salt. The first step of starting any business is not to kill off your main source of income. Having a job and starting a business actually helps you focus your priorities on only what is needed to get the business running and (hopefully) profitable. Otherwise, how are you going to make ends meet while you aren't working your day job? What's also nice about finding the important items needed to get the business running is that, when you finally decide to quit your day job, you now know the important things in the business that you must prioritize. It's like saying "If I only had an extra 10 hours a week to work on the business, it would be 50% more profitable". But by quitting your job before the business has started, you can't be certain of what effect your job had (or did not have) on running your business.
