As many others have already done, I'd argue exactly the opposite of what's said in this article. Quitting your job to pursue your dreams full-time is much more worthy of applause than relegating your dreams to a mere "side project." Too bad. Doing what you love on the side means you don’t have to risk everything immediately. You have a steady income so you’re less desperate. You can build it slowly until whatever it is is such a success that it justifies quitting your regular job. It’s a measured approach instead of a toss of the dice. Plus, you can easily turn around if you go down the wrong path (or lose motivation). Maybe these “keep the day job and build it on the side” folks are the ones who really deserve the applause.
