I've been following this path. I got my first job out of school three years ago and worked on several personal side-projects at home after hours. Earlier this year I finally got to the point in one of my projects that I would either have to quit my day job to apply myself full-time to it, or abandon the idea altogether. It has been about four months since I quit my day job to pursue this startup, and let me tell you, quitting was not easy. It was a very tough decision and honestly more stressful than it was to get the job in the first place. I don't think I deserve any applause just for foresaking a steady paycheck, but I wouldn't make the blanket statement that it is easy, either. Finally, I will be launching my startup this week! I am up late making finishing touches to the website. I will be making a "Review my startup" post here on HN when it goes live. I can't wait.
