I worked full-time for 5 years, freelanced for 1 year & then moved back to full-time. I have the intention of starting my own business eventually, but I didn't have any money saved, so when I freelanced, I would constantly have to be hustling jobs. I ended up with some good (not great) permanent clients & was making great money, but even then, I was designing & building websites only (mostly Wordpress) which wasn't the work I wanted to be doing. I wanted to work in startups on a product & realised that going back to full-time was the better option for me. If you haven't ever worked full-time for someone else, I would recommend doing that first. You can still learn a lot about running a business in a full-time job - sometimes even the most important things like communication, managing a team etc. It's also a good chance to work out what you actually want to do whilst having a steady pay-check.
